Plenty of flower power at RHS Malvern Spring Festival

Malvern Editorial 23rd Mar, 2018   0

THE FINEST specialist nurseries from across the country will come together in spectacular style for RHS Malvern Spring Festival’s famous Floral Marquee.

Packed into a marquee four times as long as an Olympic swimming pool, a record breaking 70 award-winning nurseries will get the growing season off to a stunningly colourful start.

At the centre will sit the RHS Master Grower exhibit, featuring the multi gold-medal winning and much-loved Avon Bulbs, selected by the Royal Horticultural Society for their ethical and sustainable practices as well as their range of top quality plants.

Diana Walton, head of RHS Malvern Spring Festival, said: “Many of our visitors head straight for the Floral Marquee as soon as they arrive.




“They know it’s their first chance to stock up their borders at the start of the growing season and immerse themselves within a sensory extravaganza of colour and scent.

“Following last year’s astounding success, we ran out of nursery places in record time which tells us not only how fantastic this space is for our visitors but also how successful it is for our nurseries.


“The RHS shows are often the main retail opportunities for these specialist retailers so it’s wonderful to know that we’re helping support them in this way.”

Tickets are now on sale for the festival which takes place from Thursday, May 10 until Sunday, May 13.

Free entry for children under the age of 16 is available throughout the festival.
