Laura Biggs, Managing Director of BBC Haymarket Exhibitions, says “It’s so exciting to welcome back Monty Don and Alan Titchmarsh to BBC Gardeners’ World Live. The Show is going to be bigger and better than ever this year with over 25 Show Gardens, 100 top nurseries and leading experts giving talks and advice to help all gardeners, whether they’re beginners or experts.”

Highlights
Some of the Show’s most popular features will be back again this year, including the Gardeners’ World Magazine Theatre, Floristry Masterclasses, Ask the Experts Stage and the Countryfile Magazine Stage where stars from the BBC1 series will share their passions for the countryside and talk about their top walks and favourite spots in the UK. There will also be an appearance from top wildlife filmmaker Simon King.

Bringing gardening to life
With over 25 Show gardens, more than 100 nurseries and top experts, keen gardeners will find inspiration in abundance. The Show is a shopper’s paradise; head to the RHS Floral Marquee for award-winning nurseries and rare collections of plants or stroll down Plant Avenue. Visit the Shopping Lanes, packed with all the latest gardening gadgets, gifts and local crafts from top manufacturers to artisans. Drop into the Grow Your Own Garden in the heart of the Show gardens for top tips and advise on growing your own fruit, vegetables and herbs successfully this summer.

New for 2011 - Edible Patches
A member of the public could see their design built at the show through a competition run with the National Society of Allotment and Leisure Gardeners. This new show feature aims to display innovative and productive ways of growing edible plants in a small space. Apply online by 11 February 2011 at www.bbcgardenersworldlive.com
