Financial losses in the last few years have cast doubt over the future of the UK's oldest flower show.
The organisers of the UK's oldest flower show remain "cautiously confident" over the future of the event, after experiencing big losses in the last couple of years.Ticket sales for last year's show were affected by high winds and wet conditions, with Amber weather warnings in place courtesy of Storm Antoni.
It was reportedly set up by the gentlemen of the area to show off the expertise of their gardeners, encouraging premium horticulture by growing the best specimens of flowers, fruit and vegetables."We are cautiously confident as to the continuation of the show for years to come," said show manager, Becky Fox.
"We entered planning for the show this year under great trepidation as our finances had been negatively affected by both the Covid-19 pandemic and the poor weather at last year's show.
