Flore gardens have been open since 1963 as part of the Flore Flower Festival. The partnership with the NGS started in 1992 with openings every yr since. Flore is an attractive village with views over the Upper Nene Valley. We have a varied mix of gardens, large and small. They have all been developed by friendly, enthusiastic and welcoming owners who are in their gardens when open. Our gardens range from the traditional to the eccentric providing year-round interest. Some have been established over many yrs and others have been developed more recently. There are greenhouses, gazebos, summerhouses, water features and seating opportunities to rest while enjoying the gardens.

The June gardens include formal and informal designs with lots of roses, clematis and many varieties of trees, shrubs, perennials, herbs, fruit and some vegetables.
There is a C12 Church and Victorian Chapel which are also open in June with floral displays.
