Catwalk in Bloom


Welcome to the world’s biggest plant themed fashion catwalk show! First staged at the 2007 RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, Catwalk in Bloom is a unique fashion show. Featuring clothes either made from plants, patterns and designs with a foliage and floral feel and fashion inspired by the colours and senses of the plant world, this is a truly stunning and unique showcase – a true fusion of fashion and foliage.

One catwalk featured ‘Living Clothes’, real clothes made from plants and flowers that amazed the audience and stun the press. Another explored the world of fashion couture for plants either inspired by or designed for wearing the garden – from wellies to society garden parties. One show simply celebrates the beauty and charm of the plants themselves as they take their own turn up the runway.

Garden Angels Live!


This is a show quite like not other - here David and his team of TV presenters and award-winning gardeners, ITV’s Garden Angels, bring the magic of television garden makeovers on to the live stage by developing a fully stocked, accessorised and functional garden in front of an audience from start to finish in 30 minutes flat!.

David comperes the show, talking through the development of the garden and demonstrating hints and tips on how to develop instant garden effects, including fencing, paving, grass, and styling the garden with furniture and ornamental features to give visitors inspiration on how to create quick and easy wow factor in their own gardens, with very little effort.

For some fun, the show has featured a live ‘Blind Date’ style show, light-hearted Q&A game called Grab-a-Gardener, where contestants compete to win their own ‘gardener for a day’ picked from David’s team!

Myths and Magic of Halloween


This show brings together some of the legends and myths of Halloween with the magical powers of plants associated with spells and magic. It’s a show for kids and adults alike – featuring plants with magical healing powers (and how to pick the save ones) to top tips on using plants to make and decorate your home for Halloween – with the odd pumpkin recipe thrown in!

Learn what woods to look for to make the best performing magic wands – Celtic wands are made of hazel, Gaelic wands from yew – they have their own unique powers! Or craft your own witch’s broomstick – using willow, hazel and birch twigs, bramble and blackberry (and discover why Halloween is not in May…)

Discover the mysteries of some of the world’s most magical plants like the Vampire Plant, the Hooded Executioner and Wolfs Bane used for warding off evil spirits, healing and mixing spells!

People have believed for centuries that light keeps away ghosts and ghouls. Making a pumpkin lantern with a candle inside may keep you safe from all the spooky spirits flying around on Halloween.
