Colin Squire OBE., Chairman Emeritus, Squire’s Garden Centres, comments: “We are really looking forward to welcoming the Orchid Society of Great Britain to our Shepperton garden centre and to host their Spring Orchid Show. It will be a fascinating event to attend and one not to be missed with a stunning line-up of interesting and remarkable orchids to admire in one location. The event is free and visitors can be sure of a very warm welcome.

“Squire’s is committed to supporting horticulture and playing our part in promoting societies’ shows such as the excellent OSGB’s Spring Show. Our support contributes to making shows possible, and hopefully brings some amazing plants to a new audience, helping them become more easily accessible to many people who might otherwise miss out on seeing such wonderful plants.  And who knows, it might even inspire some visitors to start growing orchids themselves!”
