The Duchess of Edinburgh opening the 117th Royal Windsor Flower Show

Celebrating its 118th year, the Royal Windsor Flower Show will take place this Saturday, the 7th of June 2025. Set in Windsor Great Park, the one-day event, celebrates gardening, nature, food and traditional crafts. The Show, which will opened by Her Royal Highness, the Duchess of Edinburgh and attended by the society’s Honorary President, Alan Titchmarsh, is the annual celebration of the RWRHS and its long history of Royal patronage.

The theme for 2025 is “Patterns in Nature,” inspired by the RWRHS Patron, His Majesty King Charles III’s book ‘Harmony’. From the rhythm of the seasons to natural symmetry, the theme runs throughout the show. This year’s feature garden, positioned at the centre of the show, has been designed by Alan Williams of Landform Consultants.

Throughout the day visitors can expect talks, hands-on gardening demonstrations, floral artistry, Master Gardener displays and the competition exhibits in the marquee. A series of nurseries and exhibitors will be selling plants and gardening essentials from their stalls.
