Southport Flower Show is delighted to announce ITV’s Love Your Garden’s Katie Rushworth will make an appearance at this year’s show on Sunday 21st August 2022.  

Katie is an integral part of the successful presenting and gardening team from ITV’s Love Your Garden. 

Katie found her passion and skill for gardening when she first did garden maintenance locally in Yorkshire. She decided to turn this love affair with gardening into a career after studying horticulture at night school and working part time at her local garden centre.

Katie’s enthusiasm for gardening comes across clearly for all to see on the ITV show. She has excellent plant knowledge and a great eye for design, function and beauty and this is conveyed to the watching audience with humour, expression and accessibility. She thrives on working outdoors in naturally beautiful habitats.

Katie will join a great line-up of special guests this year.

On Thursday visitors can see BBC Gardeners’ World Presenter Adam Frost.

Friday sees Strictly’s Janette and Aljaž.  

On Saturday you can meet The Drag Queen Gardener Daisy Desire and Hairy Biker Si King cooking live.

On Sunday kids will love children’s TV presenter Justin Fletcher and Great British Menu finalist and Ready Steady Cook chef Ellis Barrie.

More to be announced soon! 

Alan Adams, General Manager of Southport Flower Show and Victoria Park said:

 “We are looking forward to Katie coming to this year’s show and sharing her knowledge and expertise with our visitors. In previous years we’ve had ITV’s Love Your Garden presenters Alan Titchmarsh and David Domoney at the show so to have Katie join us as well is fantastic. We know she will be a hit.”
