Scotland’s national garden show, Scone Palace Garden Fair, has announced Dobbies Garden Centres as the main sponsor for this year’s event, which runs from 30 to 31 May.

Now in its fourth year, the garden show features a mix of gardening displays, plant sales, hands-on activities from the Royal Horticultural Society, the popular Scottish Garden Design competition, and a series of expert talks from leading industry experts, which will include Dobbies’ Senior Houseplant Buyer and RHS Chair of Assessors, Claire Bishop.

The event is set against the picturesque backdrop of Scone Palace and is set to welcome in the region of 7,000 visitors over the two days. Dobbies’ team will be on-hand during the event with expert advice, practical gardening ideas, and tips on how to make the most of garden living.

Speaking about the partnership with Dobbies, Viscount William Stormont of Scone Palace commented: "As Scotland's national garden show, we are on a mission to share our passion for plants, to inspire wellness through horticulture, and to create a home for the Scottish gardening community, as we endeavour to make gardening approachable and accessible for all.

“We are delighted, therefore, to welcome Dobbies on board as a main sponsor. Their dedication to gardening aligns perfectly with our values, and I know they will play a key role in bringing the 2025 Garden Fair experience to life.”

Emma Leek, General Manager at Dobbies Perth, commented: "We’re thrilled to be supporting Scone Palace Garden Fair, especially as this year we’re celebrating 160 years of helping British gardeners to grow.

“The team at Dobbies Perth love connecting with our local community and helping them bring their gardens to life. We’re looking forward to meeting our fellow garden fans at the Garden Fair and connecting over our shared passion for plants and gardening.”
