The RHS Lindley Hall will host the very first RHS London Urban Garden Show.
On entering the show visitors will be immersed in a tropical paradise with an array of species suitable for indoor use such as ivies, palms and ferns. A second inspirational installation will feature popular dry plants such as cacti and succulents, which are easy to keep and need little maintenance.
You will get the chance to ask the experts about caring for your plants whatever your level of knowledge, and get cultivation tips on keeping them healthy all year round. In addition, you'll be able to check out plant accessories to create an impressive display from some of London’s hottest new horticultural brands.
The Show will feature seminars on topics ranging from social media for gardeners to growing various kinds of houseplants and how plants can be used in the urban settings, along with curated tours of our Lindley Library exhibit on the City Gardener, which covers the delights and challenges of urban gardening through the ages.
There will also be a tempting range of food on offer if you feel the need for something tasty - SpiceBox, Seedlip, Rupert's Street, The Inkspot Brewery, Vegan Sweet Tooth, The Gin Garden, and Young Vegans will all be on hand with thier range of fabulous fare.
