WEST MIDLANDS GARDEN CENTRES
The 'capital' of the West Midlands is Birmingham, the second most populated city in the UK. As would be expected, the West Midlands has an excellent choice of garden centres. It has, after all a population in excess of 2.5 million people.
This makes the West Midlands an ideal area for cultivating the vast majority of garden plants which are available in the average garden centre.

GARDENING IN THE WEST MIDLANDS
When buying plants from garden centres in the West Midlands you need to consider the soil type in your garden. The West Midlands has a variety of soil types, from clay to sand. However their is a slight bias towards clay soils in this area.
The NEC in Birmingham is host to probably the most popular gardening show in the UK, the BBC Gardeners World Show which is held towards the end of June each year. Although this show is not aimed at the West Midlands in particular, its handy location for the West Midlands gardener's make it an event not to be missed.
