A free gardening workshop is set to take place at Dobbies Garden Centre.

The Cadnam store will host the Rose-themed Grow How workshop this June, providing advice on caring for the popular flowering plant.

The workshop, Roses: From Pruning to Planting, is open to all ages and abilities and will be held on the first Saturday and Wednesday of the month.

The workshop will cover the different varieties of roses available, with more than 250 varieties to choose from at Dobbies.

Attendees will also be given advice on picking the perfect rose for their garden space.

The session will also cover rose planting basics, including the different kinds of pots and planters, potting mix, mulch, and rose feed.

Dobbies’ plant buyer, Nigel Lawton, said: "Roses are a timeless garden favourite, providing a vibrant pop of colour, a delicate fragrance when in bloom, and are a magnet for pollinators like bees and butterflies.

"There are so many wonderful varieties, perfect for any outdoor space.

"We’re excited to help demonstrate some simple planting and pruning tips to help gardeners in Cadnam enjoy these popular flowers throughout the summer months and into autumn."

Spaces are limited, and booking is required at Dobbies’ Cadnam store or website.
