Gardeners will have the chance to take home a piece of Webbs’ Flora Fields this November, as the garden centre invites visitors to dig up their favourite dahlias in support of two charities.

The Flora Fields Charity Dahlia Dig Up takes place at Webbs, Wychbold, near Droitwich, on Sunday 1 November, from 10am, following the end of the summer flower display.

Throughout the summer, visitors have been able to explore more than 60 varieties of dahlias at Flora Fields and cut their favourite blooms to take home. Now, as the plants die back for winter, they can return to the field to select a favourite variety and dig up its tuber to grow in their own gardens next year.

Dahlia tubers will cost £2 each, with all proceeds donated to St Richard’s Hospice and Greenfingers Charity. Admission to the event is £2 per person, with visitors required to book a one-hour session online in advance.

Louise Webb, co-owner and director at Webbs, said the event would allow visitors to enjoy their favourite dahlias again next summer while raising money for two worthwhile causes.

St Richard’s Hospice provides free, compassionate care to adults living with illnesses that cannot be cured, as well as support for their loved ones. Ria Simons, corporate fundraising manager at the hospice, said local businesses such as Webbs play an important role in helping fund its care and support services across Worcestershire.

Greenfingers Charity supports children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions who spend time in hospices across the UK, alongside their families and carers. The charity creates therapeutic gardens at children’s hospices, providing welcoming outdoor spaces for play, relaxation and time together.

Linda Petrons, director of fundraising and communications at Greenfingers Charity, said the initiative would help the beauty of Flora Fields live on in visitors’ gardens while contributing towards the charity’s work.

Webbs’ horticultural team will be on hand during the event to help identify varieties and offer advice on lifting and storing tubers over winter before replanting them in spring.

Visitors are encouraged to bring a garden fork, secateurs, suitable containers and practical clothing and footwear.
