ABOUT THE CHELSEA GARDEN SHOW
The Chelsea Flower Show is the gardening Mecca of Europe, where some of the greatest exponents of the art, exhibit imaginative garden designs over an 11-acre site at the Royal Hospital in Chelsea. They create a wonderland for the public to explore, as the tranquil canvas of the hospital’s lawns comes alive with a riot of color and form. Since its inception in 1913, the show has been at the forefront of horticultural development. In 2002, the entire event was housed in the dramatic new-look Great Marquees – higher, lighter, brighter and better ventilated than ever before.

Dozens of model gardens have always formed the prime attraction, reflecting the Changing enthusiasms of designers, from the Japanese and topiary styles of the early days through to a major emphasis on rock gardens during the war years, to the paved backyards, cottage and wildflower gardens of the present day. The show continues a long tradition of pushing boundaries.
