RHS volunteer

Big News from Solent Stems: We’re Heading to RHS Badminton! 🌿

We’re absolutely delighted to share some exciting news with our customers, friends, and fellow plant lovers— We have been successful in our application to volunteer at RHS Badminton this July!

This is a fantastic opportunity for us to be part of one of the most prestigious events in the horticultural calendar, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to get involved.

What We’ll Be Doing?

At RHS Badminton, we’ll be joining the Plant Finder Team, a vital part of the visitor experience. If you’ve ever wandered through a show garden or plant marquee and spotted something you love but don’t know the name of, that’s where we come in!

Our role will include:

  • Helping visitors identify plants they’ve seen around the show

  • Providing botanical names and useful growing information

  • Guiding people to nurseries and exhibitors where they can purchase plants

  • Sharing tips on plant care, suitability, and garden design inspiration

It’s a role that combines knowledge, passion, and people skills.

Why This Matters to Us

Being selected to volunteer is not only an honour but also a reflection of our dedication to plants, gardening, floristry, and ongoing learning. It gives us the chance to:

  • Expand our horticultural knowledge

  • Connect with growers, designers, and enthusiasts from across the UK

  • Bring fresh inspiration back to our cutting garden

Looking Ahead

We’re counting down the days until July and can’t wait to immerse ourselves in such a vibrant, plant-filled environment. We’ll be sure to share updates, photos, and behind-the-scenes insights while we’re there—so keep an eye on our social channels!
