Back in the Pavillion looking for some colour!..
A stroll around Chelsea Flower Show 2008
Beautiful bottle brush..........
A brick wall used as part of the Clematis exhibit.
I really like the reflective water and natural area. The rest are lovely and lush, but a few are way to formal for my taste, they just look too perfect and I don't do "perfect" well LOL!
One of these days, I would love to see this show in person, but until then thanks for sharing all the wonderful displays. They do give one some great ideas.
Hi Terri - I just got back from a two-week vacation and am getting caught up on all the lovely photos you have posted. Wow - did you really get all that in in ONE day???? Is that a yearly event? Will have to make that a vacation destination real soon.
Thanks Candee and soilsandup! Yes it is a yearly event, the first day the Queen has a look around! a couple of days are RHS members only and the rest of the week it is open to the public. The plants are for sale on the last day of the show, Saturday at 4pm, they ring a bell!
I was only there for the day, so I didn't see everything. It is well worth a visit if ever you find yourself in this part of the world.
Another show garden ....... Summer Solstice
Beautiful photos of another fabulous RHS Chelsea, terriculture! Thanks for sharing your day at the show! I wish I could have made it over the pond for a visit too!
Thank you Tabasco! Glad you enjoyed the pictures. It would be great to have one of those DG meetings over here one day!!
Soilsandup, I forgot to say I had a half day ticket, 3.30-8pm. It's MUCH cheaper, Lol!
Yes, I would like that!!
WOW factor of 10 !! Now I'm googling to see when the next flower show is in my area is.
INCREDIBLE !!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it ReefdiverTed.
Beautiful.....its hard to believe how huge the exibits can be until you see them. Its a treat everyone who loves flowers should experience at least once. Very much worth it...Thanks
You are very welcome dayflower!
So what month does this show take place? I've always wanted to go to England. I'm one of those people who goes gaga over anything English! I loved that George Harrison garden, esp the painted paths.
Hi Gwendalou! The show is in May, usually the 3rd week. I haven't checked the dates this year yet.
The George Harrison was a lovely garden, the mosaic paths were so colourful leading you through.
Glad you enyoyed it, hopefully I will go again this year, if I can find a friend to go with . LOL!
