Andy Tudbury, head gardener at Belvoir Castle said: “Last year’s flower and garden show was a huge hit with visitors near and afar, who flocked to see Belvoir bloom with beautiful displays, enjoy workshops and for a mooch about the stalls.

“For its eighth year, we wanted to go further by inviting two of the industry’s experts to host Q&As and one-off talks, which we hope inspires visitors of all abilities.

“Whether you’re a gardening novice with young children who admires nature’s beauty and wants to know more, or a dedicated amateur tending to their plots for years, there’s something for everyone at this year’s show.”

Experts Adam Frost, from the BBC, and David Domoney, from ITV, will be attending across the weekend, hosting a variety of one-off talks, meet and greets and participating in a Q&A-style gardeners question time.
