For the eighth year running, the RHS Flower Show at Tatton Park will display the culmination of months of hard work for local authorities and communities across the UK, as the finale of the RHS National Flower Bed Competition takes place.

Demonstrating the increasing importance that both councils and local communities set on their surrounding environment, the competition sees competitors working with a 7m by 4m (23.3x13.3ft) bed to showcase a wide variety of creative and unique planting.

This year, as part of the event’s new grid layout, the flower beds will continue to be situated in a high profile location running from the East of the showground towards the Floral Marquee.
