PEOPLE can enjoy a hands-on planting and afternoon tea event at a Shenstone garden centre.

Dobbies is hosting the season workshop on 20th and 24th May.

Visitors will spend 90 minutes with specialists for a demonstration as well as a question and answer session.

Each participant will create and take away a bespoke planted container before enjoying afternoon tea.

Claire Bishop, Dobbies’ senior houseplant buyer and chair of assessors at the RHS Chelsea Garden Show, said:

> “We are excited to be celebrating 160 years of helping British gardeners to grow by bringing this new event to our Shenstone store.   
>  
> “Our planting and afternoon tea events have been really popular with our customers and it’s been fantastic to have one that celebrates RHS Chelsea Flower Show.  
>  
> “I’ve loved selecting the plants and hope those attending enjoy creating their own seasonal containers that they can take home and enjoy.”

Tickets are £45\. For booking details visit [www.dobbies.com/events](http://www.dobbies.com/events?ref=lichfieldlive.co.uk).
