The popular Harrogate Spring Flower Show is set to return to the Great Yorkshire Showground from today (Thursday) until Sunday to kick-start the UK’s national gardening calendar.
Designers from across the country will be creating a flash of fantastic floral inspiration to illustrate the benefits of bringing plants and flowers into our lives this season.
This year, a packed programme of live entertainment includes talks and demonstrations across four stages.
There will also be thousands of high-quality garden products, unique handmade crafts, gifts and specialist foods to add to a truly great day out for all garden lovers.
Here we take a look back at previous years of the Harrogate Spring Flower Show...
