Hamble is set to become a floral haven over the Spring Bank Holiday with leading floral art designer Pat Maple designing the displays for the village's flower festival.

Pat has won numerous awards for floral design at the Chelsea Flower Show including "Best in Show" in the national competition, and working with Hamble Flower Club she will be able to put on a stunning exhibition in St Andrew's Church for both flower enthusiasts and lay visitors.

The exhibition will be held over four days and after spending an enjoyable day looking at the show visitors can enjoy musical events at the church in the evenings.
