For their second show, the gardeners of the Somme are displaying plants from their gardens: annuals, perennials, unusual vegetables, fragrant plants etc. It's a unique opportunity for nature lovers to meet garden owners and regional landscape gardeners who will share their knowledge, top tips and tricks with the general public, both keen gardeners and amateurs alike.
Odile Hennebert, who presents the gardening programme on Picardy France Blue, is giving a talk at 4pm on beneficial gardening combinations.
There will also be guided tours of the Jardins des Plantes, given by staff, at 11 am and 3 pm, exploring the extraordinary collection of plants, under the theme "Plants, Uses and Man."
And, just this once, the greenhouses will be open to the public as part of a guided tour. Entry free of charge.
