City Care Hort Galore Marquee
For the first time the Gold Medal winning team from the Christchurch Botanic Gardens will enter a challenging “intriguing” Central American display ‘El Templo de Bloom’ in the Hort Galore Marquee.
A corner of the marquee is dedicated to demonstrations and other entertainment from the exhibitors within the marquee where one of our horticultural experts or floral artists will be demonstrating their skills. We are also delighted to have, for the first time, a school entry into the Hort Galore which provides us with the wonderful opportunity to hear some of the talented children from Selwyn House School on the demonstration stage. Demonstrations will take place every half hour.
