GARDEN-LOVERS are being offered the chance to take a peek into some “secret sheds”.

Community groups across the region are being invited to open the door to new possibilities and share their secrets with visitors to this year’s Harrogate Spring Flower Show.

A new attraction at the show, which runs from April 26 to 29, will feature a series of secret sheds each containing a different display or message.

It could be a potager in the potting shed or tulips in the tool rack – visitors will not find out until they open the door.

Show director Nick Smith said: “A full-sized show garden can be a big undertaking, so we are introducing the new concept of Secret Sheds as an exciting way to surprise and engage our visitors.

"Behind the door of each shed will be a unique display and story, which should be great fun for everyone.”

Each shed comes with a 2m x 2m plot to help set the scene and there are prizes of £300, £200 and £100 for the top three.
