Fabulous floral displays are coming to Malvern next month as part of the Autumn Show.
The RHS Flower Show will take centre stage at the annual show from Friday September 24 to Sunday 26.
More than 40 of the UK’s best florists will transform the Three Counties Showground into an arena of colour, scent and movement.
Jane Edwards, shows manager, said: “We are delighted that the Malvern Autumn Show is back and for the first time, our jam-packed event is being held over three days.
“This ginormous harvest festival is full of people enthusiastic about growing and food – it’s a real end of the season celebration.
“Over 40 of the UK’s top nurseries and growers will create impressive displays at the show. They are happy to share their expert advice and knowledge with visitors, which is always spot on.”
The nurseries will be competing for the coveted RHS five-star rating which is considered the ultimate prize, a recognition of the skill and effort that goes into each display as well as reflecting the inspiration the nurseries provide.
Some of the nurseries scheduled to appear at the show include Bean Place Nursery, Craig House Cacti, Hooksgreen Herbs, Hardy’s Cottage Garden Plants, Harts Nursery, Petrichor Bulb Specialists, Primrose Bank, Rose Cottage Plants and many, many more.
Judges of the contest are highly experienced horticultural experts and will judge displays based on complexity of construction, how challenging the planting is and overall impression and originality.
The top prizes of the day include the Best in Show award and the Judge’s Choice award.
The event is sure to offer something for everyone, from the budding gardener to those just looking for their next Instagram picture.
You can even take home a part of the show from the bulb market where a wide selection of flowers will be available for purchase.
Entry to the RHS Flower Show is included in admission to the Malvern Autumn Show, which costs £18 or free for under 16s.
The event will also feature the CANNA UK National Giant Vegetables Championship and many free activities, from pedal tractors and croquet to arts and crafts activities.
