Visitors can explore thousands of plants, including bee-friendly perennials, shrubs, plants for shade, alpines, roses, clematis, wildflowers, herbs, house plants, grasses, and variegated or foliage plants. RHS Medal Winners and National Plant Collection Holders will be present to provide expert advice.
Martin Blow of Plant Hunters' Fairs said: “It’s certainly been the weather to enjoy our gardens and at this time of year we all need something to brighten our borders and perk up our pots and patios. As always, the plant fair will have a brilliant range of plants to shine out in the sun and shimmer in the shade.”
