A person in a green polo shirt stands inside a greenhouse filled with colourful hanging flower baskets. Rows of blooming plants surround them, and the metal framework of the greenhouse arches overhead. The person is holding two hanging baskets, one in each hand, amid the vibrant display of flowers.

Each year the team at Inverness Botanic Gardens is hard at work to grow and curate over 1000 hanging flower baskets for display all over the Highlands.

Many of the hanging baskets are bespoke to match the requirements of local businesses, to keep consistent with their own branding.

Our core team of gardeners deliver the project, but we wouldn’t be able to deliver hanging baskets on this scale if it wasn’t for the support of our seasonal gardeners and dedicated volunteers.

In total, we provide 650 hanging flower baskets for businesses across Inverness in collaboration with Inverness BID, and 350 hanging flower baskets for Oban BID too. The project takes months to coordinate, with over 15,000 plants to grow, water, and arrange.
