The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) is giving garden and greenhouse enthusiasts a chance to snap up tickets for its 2011 shows in advance.

It put the passes on sale yesterday (October 4th) for a number of top events, including the world-renowned RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Heralded by the society as the "ultimate event in the gardening calendar", the London celebration will take place between May 24th and 28th next year.

The event sees the cream of British gardening compete for honours with display gardens, while attendees can also browse the various trade stands and check out the latest trends in the industry.

One of this year's Chelsea winners was Interflora, which has also created a display garden for the RHS Autumn Harvest Show, which began today.

Meanwhile, horticulture lovers can also pick up tickets to the spring RHS Show Cardiff, which takes place in April, and the summer Hampton Court Palace Flower Show and RHS Show Tatton Park in July.
