Title: Tatton Park Flower Show 2017
Post by: Tee Gee on July 26, 2017, 20:55:27
Hi all,

I had the pleasure of visiting Tatton show last weekend and as usual I took hundreds of pictures.

So much so,  it has taken me until now to edit them and put them into a 'blog' on my website.

I have managed to get the total down to just over 200 photos so for those people that are interested you can have a look and a read in here:

ps If yo find any typos or broken links could you give me the nod, as I haven't really got around to proofing it yet. TIA

They were well worth a look through, I have not been to Tatton Park for a few years but think i will be visiting next year as Gardeners world live seems to have stagnated a wee bit.

Lovely photos Tee Gee.  Thanks for posting.

I watched some of the show on tv recently and it inspired me to want to go there one year.

I think earlier than later might be advisable as I get the feeling it might not be around much longer at least in its present form.

The show is run by the RHS and they have now set up shows at their major gardens ( Wisley,Rosemoor,Hyde Hall and Harlow Carr) and within the next couple of years  they will be opening a new garden at Bridgewater which is only a few miles from Tatton so it would not surprise me if the Tatton show as it is now might move to Bridgewater for economic reasons. That is they will not have to hire the Tatton Park estate.

Hope I am wrong! Only time will tell!
