This popular horticultural event, now in its 17th year, takes place at the beautiful monastic site at Creake Abbey, just south of Burnham Market in north Norfolk.

The event has a loyal following of gardening enthusiasts who flock to enjoy the exciting and unusual plants on offer, all at excellent prices. Visitors will find the full range of herbaceous perennials as well as grasses, bulbs, shrubs and climbers from specialist garden nurseries across Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire. It is possible to buy direct from the nurseries or pre-order specific plants with collection on the day. As always, the public is encouraged to take full advantage of the advice and inspiration on offer from the region’s leading plantsmen.

Entrance to the event area is £5.00 per adult, with all proceeds coming to the Priscilla Bacon Hospice Charity. There is no charge for under 16s. Dogs on leads welcome, but must not be left in cars.

Refreshments on the day will be provided by a stunning line up of carefully selected Norfolk street food and catering businesses alongside The Barn Café, as follows:
