MELROSE is once again in full bloom, as the team finished the planting in time for both the Borders Book Festival and the Melrose Festival.

Baskets, planters and flower beds are full of bright colour and have already caught the eye of locals and tourists alike.

The watering vehicle, “Rosie” is at work, but there are still places, and anyone who would like to join the team should phone Martin on 01896 820023.
