Festival of Flowers
Step into a realm of vibrant colours and delicate fragrances as we invite you into the house to discover displays of beautiful blooms and delight in the floral beauty of the gardens.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Festival of Flowers explores and celebrates the art of flower arranging and the experience of bringing touches of the natural world into your inside spaces. The last resident of Hinton Ampner; Ralph Dutton was a great lover of cut flowers, he grew flowers in his gardens especially for this purpose and this event is partly inspired by his legacy. We also want visitors to take inspiration for their own blooms, whether for weddings, dinner parties or just a simple posy brightening up a windowsill.
Flower arrangements will fill up fireplaces, tables and sideboards, enhancing each room of the house as they will reflect the colours found in each space. Festival of Flowers is in partnership with Bud & Flower who, alongside our brilliant volunteers, will craft these floral masterpieces for your delight!
