Floral Displays

by Gardening Scotland on May 29, 2010

Three of Scotland’s largest local authorities will be creating memorable displays at Gardening Scotland 2010.

Fife Council will be celebrating their parks, Blue Flag beaches and return this year of the Open Golf Tournament at St Andrews by creating a model of that Old Course landmark, the Swilken Bridge, and covering it in 70,000 achillea flower heads.

Glasgow City Council will be using plants from around the world to celebrate the Commonwealth, as a precursor to the arrival in Glasgow in 2014 of The Commonwealth Games, while Edinburgh City Council will be using a scale model of a Spitfire and lots of red, white and blue plants to mark the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Britain.
