Viewing RHS Chelsea Flower Show at Royal Hospital Chelsea

The last few days to catch the annual RHS Chelsea Flower Show, a highlight of the cultural calendar for many who flock to the Royal Hospital Chelsea to see the most spectacular horticultural displays of the year. Expecting outstanding garden designs, exclusive shopping and of course, fabulous floral arrangements.

There really is something for everyone at the Flower Show. This year, explore what is possible in a smaller space – the reality for many urban gardeners – and with the challenges that town and city gardeners face, from flood management, pollution and noise. Head to the dedicated ‘Balcony and Container Gardens’ section for inspiration and practical tips and advice.

The Great Pavilion is where it all blooms in abundance: here, you’ll find the best growers and nurseries from around the world exhibiting. It’s the most prestigious display in horticulture, with an unrivalled collection of plant experts eager to share their knowledge – most of the plants aren’t available to buy here, until the sell-off from 4pm on Saturday – but the imaginative, ambitious displays never fail to amaze and delight. It’s irresistible.
