British Garden Centres wins 4 Flower Plant Village Award

British Garden Centres is celebrating after winning a 4 Flower Plant Village Award for its retail stand at the recent RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival. This was the first time the family-owned group had exhibited at the show, using the opportunity to raise its profile and increase awareness of its 73 stores to a wider audience.

The stand featured a beautiful display of Earthenware planters and urns supplied by Woodlodge. The collections, ranging from large rustic focal containers to smaller textured pots, were arranged on a bed of natural pebbles and moss, creating a natural yet effective display. The planting was soft and inviting, with pastel coloured foxgloves, delphiniums, agapanthus, hydrangeas and eucalyptus bringing the display to life with colour and texture.

Charles Stubbs, founder of British Garden Centres, who took a hands-on role, said: “It felt great to get back to designing and planting up the display at Hampton Court, something I’ve always enjoyed. Winning this award is a wonderful recognition of the hard work of everyone involved. Showing at Hampton Court for the first time has been a brilliant way to introduce our brand and family run group of garden centres to new gardeners.”

The team at British Garden Centres is now hoping to replicate this success at the RHS Flower Show Wentworth Woodhouse, which will be held from 16^th to 20^th July.
