Show Gardens

2011 Awards announced! Click here to see who won what!

Every year BBC Gardeners’ World Live brings an exciting collection of Show Gardens to life in a celebration of how imagination and creativity can transform any type of outdoor space. A central focus of the Show, these gardens reflect current trends and design ideas covering a diverse range of themes which together will make up an impressive and inspiring selection for visitors to enjoy.

The Show is proud to offer an opportunity to new and upcoming British garden designers through small gardens and competition opportunities, developing a hot-bed of young talent in the field.
