Historically, Ayr Flower Show has been Scotland's answer to the Chelsea Flower Show, and this year sees the event in it's 48th year.

Held in the beautiful setting of Rozelle Estate, Monument Road with its feature trees, ponds and woodland walks and the glorious Rozelle Mansion House and Galleries, the event draws thousands of visitors from all over Scotland and beyond.

"An event of horticultural excellence" according to one eminent horticulturist, it brings together exhibitors who contest classes for blooms, pot plants, vegetables, fruit, honey, floral art and hand crafts, plus a Children's Flower Show.

This spectacular event is only a few minutes walk from the world famous Burn's Cottage in Alloway where Robert Burns, Scotland's greatest poet was born and who told us that his love was like a "red, red rose".

Well, Ayr Flower Show has the red, red roses, as well as the honest men and the bonnie lassies.

Come and enjoy!
