WHAT’S NEW?

PLATINUM JUBILEE SUPERBLOOM

The Tower of London will be encircled by millions of flowers next summer, for a stunning new ‘Superbloom’ display celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

From spring 2022, 20 million carefully selected seeds will be sown in the Tower’s famous moat, creating a vibrant sea of flowers which will continuously evolve from June to September, changing colours and patterns throughout the summer.

With a planting scheme designed to attract bees, pollinators and seed-eating birds, the display will provide a biodiverse space to support wildlife.
