Blooming Borders

This design category was new to the festival last year and will be formally judged for an RHS Medal.

Blooming Borders was new to RHS Malvern last year and is a planting design category that offers opportunities for garden designers, plants people, horticulturalists and landscapers to kick-start, or further their careers in the horticultural industry whilst gaining exposure and experience exhibiting at an RHS Show.

Located at the entrance to the Show Garden area, the borders create a stunning, expansive planted walkway, becoming a captivating feature in the Festival’s highest footfall area. This collaborative space promises to leave a lasting impression on all who visit.
