It is one of the most popular garden and flower shows in the world. People show off their creativity with trees and flowers. But you don’t have to be an expert to garden. Anyone can do it. This is why in Britain helping with the gardening is popular with kids. As a child my dad was the “master” of the garden. He often asked me to help him with the outdoor work. He would mow the lawn as I watered the trees and plants. Gardening is more interesting than indoor housework. It is relaxing as you hear the birds sing.
