This year I had The Chelsea Flower Show booked and was counting the days………sadly and quite rightly so, due to Covid it was postponed until September. As I was contemplating a Spring without a flower show I had a thought, I’m sure there are a lot of people as sad as me, what if we had a virtual flower show on Twitter? I knew exactly the team that could help…………
A Flower Show from the comfort of your own home that can be enjoyed by anyone, anytime, anywhere
The Tweeters Flower Show emerged from a seed in the minds of a group of gardeners then it grew and blossomed for you all to enjoy.
To inspire people to step into the wonderful world of gardening and experience the joy and beauty of getting your hands dirty whilst creating something rather wonderful throughout the seasons.
Run by 5 Twitter friends
Our aim is to show you that “Every Flower Delights” and to help you achieve a garden full of delightful flowers and make some new gardening friends.
Our Virtual Spring #TweetersFlowerShow will be from Monday 3rd May – Sunday 9th May
We would love you to share your tips, advice, blogs and photos and enter our competitions throughout the week, all using the #TweetersFlowerShow hashtag.
Competitions entries will close at 8pm every night with winners being announced between 8-9pm. There will be a Gold, Silver and Bronze winner each night with everyone receiving certificates, the prizes will be for UK based participants only but there will be a best international winner who will receive a certificate wherever you are in the World, if you are outside the Uk could you add your emoji flag to your post as it will help with judging, it will be lovely to see where you all are in the world.
