This is a new event in the Dan Cooper Garden calendar.
The Alpine Garden Society's Early Spring Show celebrates the start of spring, showcasing thousands of the world's smallest and most beautiful plants grown to perfection.
In addition to world-class displays of exquisite and unusual alpine, woodland, and hardy succulent plants, the show includes a plant fair, bringing together seventeen alpine specialist nurseries, plant societies, and craft stalls.
There will be several talks and interactive events throughout the day, and refreshments will be available.
Saturday, 1st March 2025, 9.30 am - 3.30 am. Admission £8. AGS Members free.
Please note that although the plant fair is open to the public between 9.30 am and 3.30 pm, the actual alpine show does not open until 11.00 am, after the judging. So, shop first, store your purchases safely in your car, and return to see the prize-winning plants.
If you'd like to collect an order or see specific Dan Cooper Garden products at this venue, please email me at hello@dancoopergarden.com a few days before, and I'll bring your chosen items along.
Chelmsford City Racecourse, Chelmsford, CM3 1QP.
