At Windsor Auctions, we’re always proud to support events that celebrate heritage, community, and craftsmanship. This year, we’re delighted to be helping promote The Royal Windsor Flower Show, taking place on Saturday, June 7, 2025, with our very own Harry Ballin acting as the day’s compère. This one-day event promises to be an unforgettable celebration of gardening, nature, cookery, and traditional crafts – all set in the stunning surroundings of Windsor Great Park. With tickets now on sale (including early bird discounts while they last!), this is a perfect Christmas gift or a promise of summer to look forward to. Here’s everything you need to know about this quintessentially British day out: A Long-Standing Tradition The Royal Windsor Flower Show is a true local institution, with 2025 marking its 118th anniversary. Organised by the Royal Windsor Rose and Horticultural Society, which itself is over 133 years old, the show has a rich and fascinating history. Known locally as the “Rose Show,” it has long enjoyed royal connections, with Queen Victoria famously sending beautiful bouquets of roses to exhibit. As with many traditional events, however, the show faced decline in the 2000s. That all changed thanks to the passion of Andrew Try, now Lord Lieutenant of Berkshire, whose grandfather once exhibited at the event. Together with Show Director Alex Denman – previously of the Chelsea Flower Show – they have transformed this local gem into a high-quality horticultural celebration that retains its traditional roots while bringing fresh ideas. Patterns in Nature: The Theme for 2025 Inspired by His Majesty King Charles III’s book ‘Harmony’, this year’s theme, Patterns in Nature, invites visitors to take a closer look at the natural world around them. From the frost of a delicate snowflake to the Fibonacci spiral in a leaf, patterns in nature connect us to the beauty, rhythm, and harmony of our environment. Throughout the show, this theme will come to life in creative and thought-provoking ways, including displays from master gardeners, immersive workshops, and inspiring photography. Visitors will leave with a renewed appreciation for the intricacies of the natural world. What to Expect: Highlights of The Royal Windsor Flower Show The Royal Windsor...
