Those of you who purchase flower seeds from Seeds By Post (http://www.seedsbypost.co.uk) - or who are considering doing so - can barely fail to have noticed one of the most eminent events in the gardening calendar taking place right now - namely, the 2012 RHS Flower Show Tatton Park near Knutsford, Cheshire. Since its launch at the 1998 Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, the event has continued to bring some of the most striking floral displays to visitors in the North West.
Indeed, for all of the reports of rain and mud hampering the nurseries and plantsmen at the 18-22 July event, there's no doubt that visitors will continue to see the most interesting gardens and displays. Far from stopping play, in fact, the challenging growing conditions may give seeds enthusiasts the chance to see plants that they would never normally see at an RHS show, given the need for some gardeners to adapt their previously planned displays.
Speaking of the weather, this year's feature highlights include the chance to present it - complete with autocue and special effects. Simply head over to the BBC Local Radio gazebo to find out more. You can also find out how to weave willow when you pay a visit to Simone Siegan and Steve Fuller's Magical Willow feature, where there will be demonstrations of the process of making simple plant supports for sweet peas and climbing beans. The National Farmers' Union (NFU), meanwhile, is celebrating the Diamond Jubilee with its From Carrots to Carats: Celebrating 60 Years of British Horticulture display.
The gardens, though, unquestionably remain the biggest attraction for many of those who like to plant cheap seeds. Whether you are interested in the most eye-catching show gardens from world class designers, or instead back to back gardens that make the most of their small plots, or even the visionary gardens that really help to redefine what garden design can be, you are unlikely to be disappointed by what this year's show has to offer. The 2012 event even sees the introduction of various show gardens with a musical theme, with the four innovative Orchestra Gardens each representing a particular musical discipline: woodwind, brass, strings and percussion.
Other highlights this year include the National Flowerbed Competition, which has this year been given a Celebration of Sport theme in acknowledgement of the 2012 Olympics, with each bed depicting a different sport. Other awards amongst the many gold, silver gilt, silver and bronze medals being presented this year include that for National Young Designer of The Year, while for stylishly dressed women, Ladies' Day also returns after a hugely successful launch last year.
As you can see, the RHS Flower Show Tatton Park certainly provides more than mere inspiration for how you can best use the next batch of mail order seeds that you order from http://www.seedsbypost.co.uk.
