Popular late summer plant fair returns to Bodenham Arboretum this Saturday
Bodenham Arboretum near Kidderminster welcomes back Plant Hunters’ Fairs this Saturday for their eagerly awaited free to enter late summer plant fair.
Organiser Martin Blow said: “It’s been a fab summer, and we’ve all been making the most of our outdoor space. Now’s the time to pick up some late flowering plants to perk up our beds and borders and fill the garden with scent. The nurseries will have thousands of plants to choose from with just the right plant to set your summer garden ablaze with colour, plus there is lots of expert knowledge on hand to help you choose the best for your own unique garden.”
“So, if your garden needs a late summer lift, or you’ve been inspired to dig a new border then this is the place to find some different and exciting plants lovingly grown by passionate plantspeople. Plus, there will be a great range of garden accessories to choose from for all those finishing touches.”
“The plant fair is completely free to enter so you can just pop along and browse the plant stalls.
"So, whether it’s alpines, shrubs, bee-friendly perennials, herbs, wildflowers, bulbs, plants for shade or foliage plants you are sure to find something to fill those gaps and create a blooming brilliant garden.”
The lakeside restaurant will be open serving hot and cold drinks, lunches and snacks using produce from the arboretum’s own farm. If you want to explore the 156-acre arboretum, there is a separate charge if you choose to enter.
The plant fair is this Saturday 30th August from 10am-4pm. Free entry to the plant fair. Free Parking. Dogs on leads welcome. Please see planthuntersfairs.co.uk for full details of all nurseries attending.
