Thousands of visitors enjoyed stunning blooms and giant vegetables at this year’s Harrogate Autumn Flower Show.

The event took place at Newby Hall and Gardens, Ripon, from September 13-15 and was organised by North of England Horticultural Society (NEHS).

The show was first established in 1976 and is now in its fourth year at Newby Hall. Hundreds of exhibitors, competitors and volunteers attended last weekend's event. 

Harrogate Flower Shows director Nick Smith said: 

This year was our biggest celebration of all things horticultural with over 200 exhibitors alongside 1,000 competitors across every category from dahlias and gladioli to cabbages and beetroot.

The weather was largely kind especially on our opening day. Gardeners and horticulturalists from across the UK joined us at a show which proves year on year to be an inspirational weekend for gardeners of all abilities
