To encourage members of the public and businesses (both floristry and non-floristry) to decorate their windows to celebrate British Flowers Week we are running an online competition.

To get involved this year we are encouraging businesses and the public to decorate their windows with British flowers in their home or places of work; preferably where passers-by can enjoy them from 14th to 20th June. Whether it’s with a single stem, a bouquet made from garden flowers or a spectacular display, a decorated window with show support for the British flower industry this June.

To enter, create a window for British Flowers Week using British flowers, foliage and/or plants. Take a picture of the window and share it on social media using #BritishFlowersWeek and tagging @MarketFlowers. If you are not on social media but would still like to enter you can be emailing your entry and details to hello@cgma.co.uk.

The competition ends Sunday, 20 June. Winners will be judged by Royal florist Shane Connolly and announced week 28th June.
