Plant Swap

Plant Swap

Visitors brought along their spare garden plants to the Show and exchanged them at our popular feature, the Plant Swap. The Gardeners' World TV presenters were filming here on Wednesday and Thursday and, new for 2010, Joe, Alys and Carol made guest appearances during the rest of the week!

The 3 presenters were sharing tales of the interesting plants which have been brought in, giving tips on how to care for the sunflowers being swapped plus visitors had the chance to quiz them on their gardening conundrums.

This year, we had three different varieties of sunflower available: lemon, cola and gold. Loved by children and adults alike, sunflowers brighten up any outdoor space, and they're bee friendly too!
