Queen Elizabeth II remembered with heartfelt community event in London
The late monarch breathed her last on September 8, 2022
Queen Elizabeth II's legacy continues to live on as members of the public made a heartfelt gesture to pay tribute to the late monarch.
According to GB News, the public took part in a spring bulb planting day at a new garden in Regent’s Park to pay homage to the Queen.
It is important to mention that the two-acre garden was created by The Royal Parks Charity to commemorate the life of the former monarch and is scheduled to be inaugurated in central London in spring next year.
Britons were invited to sign up for one-hour slots on Saturday, November 22, to plant bulbs, including snowdrops, and were also given a detailed tour of the garden.
The garden will be opened alongside the UK National Memorial to the late Queen, located in St James's Park near Buckingham Palace.
Additionally, Elizabeth became a patron of the Royal Horticultural Society in 1952, the year she ascended to the throne, and was a regular at the Chelsea Flower Show throughout her 70-year reign.
The public event followed shortly after news broke that Sir David Beckham would be participating in the Chelsea Flower Show.
Queen Elizabeth II had breathed her last on September 8, 2022, at the age of 96.
