THE CHISWICK FLOWER MARKET
is back!
May is the month for markets Chiswick Flower Market is back on Sunday 2nd May. The Old Market Place outside George IV on Chiswick High Rd and adjacent Devonshire Rd will be full of stalls, with lots of beautiful bedding plants, cut flowers, ready-made bouquets, bulbs, house plants and even dried flowers. The organisers have been champing at the bit to reopen. Now is the time when we all want to get out and enjoy the garden and get planting. The market traders, some of whom grow their plants in their own nurseries,

can’t wait to show off their carefully tended plants.
Multi award winning gold medalists at the Chelsea Flower Show, Hardy’s Cottage Garden Plants, will be back, along with The Kew Plantsman, (specialising in plants which are rare or unusual), Pepperpot nursery and London House Plants. Jacques Amand will have bulbs for spring planting; LifeLike Flowers offer beautiful arrangements of silk flowers and Herboo will be inspiring a new generation of gardeners with their children’s gardening kits. f @outandaboutmagazines
