Eight extravagant displays have been unveiled in Harrogate as the annual floral summer of celebration gets underway.
The floral trail has been organised for a fourth year by Harrogate Business Improvement District, which is funded by a levy on town centre firms to come up with ideas that attract people into the town.
The displays, which provide Instagram opportunities, are located at the war memorial, the Yorkshire Hotel on Prospect Place, Nicholls Tyreman, Montpellier Hill, Cross James Street, Harrogate Theatre, West Park Church and Library Gardens.
They will remain in place until August 8.
Bethany Allen, operations and projects executive at Harrogate BID, said:
The celebration is always such a popular event every year and we always receive really positive feedback, so we’re hoping for the same in 2025.
Representatives from Harrogate District Chamber of Commerce, which is sponsoring this year’s trail, were at this morning's war memorial launch.
Harrogate BID also organises more than 200 barrier baskets around the town centre and planters in the business doorways as part of its floral activities.
