An award-winning Harrogate florist has unveiled a stunning floral gown that will be on display at the Harrogate Spring Flower Show.
Harrogate-based florist Helen James has created 'Flora' - the Goddess of Spring and Flowers - which will be displayed in the Grand Hall at the show.
'Flora' is inspired by the timeless masterpiece "La Primavera" by Sandro Botticelli and "embodies the essence of renewal."
The display has been created ahead of this year’s Spring Flower Show, which is being held at the Great Yorkshire Showground between 25th and 28th April.
Welcoming up to 50,000 visitors across the four days, it is one of the most highly-anticipated events in the gardening calendar.
A spokesperson for the Flower Show said:
"The Grand Floral Hall will hum with the sound of horticultural activity.
"In addition to the dozens of nurseries and specialist societies showcasing hundreds of new and established plant varieties, we're thrilled to unveil exciting new additions, including the Houseplant Zone, an ideal spot to get advice and find the perfect plant to infuse your home with a splash of colour.
"For a hands-on experience, visitors can take part in a new complimentary Plant Workshop to craft their own Mossarium or Seed Bomb.
"For those with burning gardening questions to be answered, check in at the Garden Advice Bureau, supported by the Chartered Institute of Horticulture, running throughout the show weekend, or take a seat at the Grow! live theatre with a host of talks and demonstrations throughout the day."
