HELMSLEY Walled Garden is getting in involved in this year’s York in Bloom festival.

The garden is joining in the celebrations of Bloom! by running a half-day floristry workshop on Friday, July 6, from 10am to noon, in the orchid house at the garden.

The course will be led by Lisa Rennison, head gardener at Helmsley and an experienced florist.

The theme of the workshop will be Make it With Flowers and participants will be making a table centre piece in a basket.

All materials will be provided and places are limited to ensure individual tuition.

Tickets for the floristry workshop cost £25 and places can be booked by phoning 01439 771427 or by emailing on info@helmsleywalledgarden.org.uk
