A MAGNIFICENT floral display awaits Farnham’s plant lovers thanks to the achievement of a new Farnham in Bloom volunteer group that planted 6,000 plug plants in just two days.

New for 2019, the Bloomin’ Friends group is providing Farnham Town Council with hands-on help for this year’s Farnham in Bloom competition.

The town council took delivery of the 6,000 plug plants on last month.

Volunteers, supported by town council staff, potted 4,000 plants on April 18 and finished the final 2,000 on Good Friday.

The plant display will be on show at Farnham in Bloom’s annual Greenhouse Open Day on Wednesday (May 22) from 10am to midday and then again from 6pm-7pm.

It gives people the chance to see a sneak preview of Farnham in Bloom before plants are distributed around the town and surrounding villages.
