The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is always a wonderful event and experience; one that we look forward to every year, both as exhibitors and visitors.
It was lovely to see the show back to its former glory after the uncertainty of the last couple of years. It really did feel like the Chelsea of old.
The show this year was a real conversation starter for a lot of reasons, ranging from serious issues such as the ever changing environment and what we as gardeners can do to help, as well as how important gardening is for our own physical and mental health, to celebrations of the highest kind for the Platinum Jubilee of Her Majesty The Queen. It was a real testament to the brilliance of gardens and gardening, and just how much an effect it all can have on life, whether it being the surface-level joy of enjoying something beautiful, to the weighty life- and world-changing impact it can have on us and environment around us. There is nothing else much like it in life that can be both ‘superficial’ but vital at the same time.
As we wind down from the show and start to try to return to normal life (as anyone who has exhibited at Chelsea can attest to, the run up and event itself is anything but normal), we thought we’d share some photos of our stand.
If you were there, we hope you had as great a time as we did. If you weren’t… there’s always next time.
