BBC Gardeners’ World Live returns to The NEC between June 10 and 14 this year with more opportunity to get up close and personal with the Gardeners’ World presenters than ever before.

Throughout the show they will be inspiring visitors to transform gardens and allotments across the country into a riot of colour, perfume and great-tasting fruit, vegetables and herbs. New Gardeners’ World presenter and RHS gold medal winning garden designer Toby Buckland will join the line up giving live demonstrations in the Celebrity Theatre, which also features Carol Klein, Joe Swift, Adam Pasco and Monty Don. For the first time ever, visitors will also be able to see the BBC Two Gardeners’ World team and the magazine team in action in the garden in the exciting brand new Live Garden feature.

Growing your own will be a big theme at the show and practical help and advice will abound. The Live Allotment will take shape throughout the show as experts and celebrities demonstrate all the essentials of successful allotment gardening. The Grow Your Own Area will boast its own stage and will be packed with useful products, displays and demonstrations offering visitors all the tips they need on how to live the good life and produce great tasting fruit, vegetables and herbs themselves.

In addition to inspiration from celebrities and experts, there will be over 25 stunning Show Gardens demonstrating just what clever designs can achieve in a small space.

The garden designers will all be hoping to win a coveted RHS medal when the judging takes place just before the show opens.

This year’s show will also be overflowing with beautiful and unusual blooms ready to adorn the widest variety of gardens from the prettiest, rambling cottage garden to the most exciting exotic paradise.

The spectacular RHS Floral Marquee will be back with over 100 specialist nurseries offering high quality plants with many rare and unusual varieties.
