Picture: Event Review: RHS FLower Show Tatton Park Cheshire » Filename: NwTatFlwrShow6x5712.jpg

The annual Royal Horticultural Society Flower Show takes place at Tatton Park Cheshire inside a large temporary enclosure set up in the middle of the park. Inside you'll find horticultural exhibits, marquees with floral displays, garden designs, stalls, pavilions, eating areas, and lots more. The RHS National Flowerbed competition showcases elaborate themed flowerbed designs submitted by local authorities all over the UK.

More info at the Tatton Park and RHS websites.

The show offers a cornucopia of gardening-related products and inspiration, with not just flowers but plants, vegetables and anything that grows in or is used to decorate a garden. I found some of the flower bed and garden designs a little over-the-top, but that's what an event of this type are all about. The entry fee is not cheap but if you're seriously involved in making or maintaining gardens, it's well worth it.
