Farming Today This Week: Flowers
Presented by Charlotte Smith. Farming Today This Week visits the Hampton Court Flower Show to examine the UK's flower-growing industry.
The vast majority of cut flowers sold in the UK are imported. It's estimated than only seven per cent are grown here in the UK, but many British flower producers are determined to change that. For Farming Today This Week, Charlotte Smith visits the Hampton Court Flower Show to talk to those who grow, market, and sell flowers. It's an industry which the government estimates is worth 拢10 billion pounds to the UK economy.
Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Emma Campbell.
