Posts Tagged ‘Centenary Chelsea Flower Show’

This year the RHS Chelsea Flower Show is celebrating its centenary year and with 15 show gardens, 11 fresh gardens, 8 artisan gardens, 150 exhibits from nurseries and florists in the Great Pavilion and 250 trade stands, it promises to be a great show.  Each element of the show I’m sure will be bringing something a little bit special to mark this momentous occasion.

As you probably know, I designed the show stand for English Garden Joinery last year but as they won’t be exhibiting this year I’ll be seeing the show as a visitor again. In the horticultural and garden design world, the RHS Chelsea Flower Show is the event of the year.

For me it’s the most inspiring of the shows and I love to see how designers have pushed the boundaries, especially when they use materials in new and innovative ways.

If you haven’t got tickets for the show, you might wish to know that Jacques Vert, specialists in wedding and occasion wear, are running a competition to win two tickets to visit the show on Friday 24th May.  All you need to do is fill out the entry form on the Jacques Vert Website before midnight on Tuesday 7th May.  The winning entry will be drawn on Wednesday 8th May.

Here are a few more pictures from previous shows to whet your appetite…

 Good Luck!
