Green-fingered enthusiasts should make their way over to the Isle of Wight for the Island’s own Garden Show held at Robin Hill Country Park on 5th – 7th May. Now in its second year and sponsored by Wightlink, the Robin Hill Garden Show attracts some of the UK’s top RHS show-winning nurseries along with local Island exhibitors. Set in 88 acres of beautiful woodland, Robin Hill Country Park is a stunning setting for the event and new this year are woodland ponds and bluebell walks which will be ready in time for the show. Plant lovers will be spoilt for choice and all visitors can sample the delicacies at the ‘Tastes of the Island’ marquee.

 Visitors to the show will be able to pick up free copies of Wightlink’s Rare Plant Trail containing the new supplement – Some Like It Hot – which spotlights plants that thrive in drought conditions. Wightlink Ferries (0870 582 7744 www.wightlink.co.uk) is offering an inclusive travel and entry day return ticket which costs from £60 and is valid for a car and up to four passengers travelling from Portsmouth or Lymington.
