chelsea flower show

Isnt it fab - i bought mum and dad tickets to go for christmas - i really wish i had got one for myself now

next year

I like the Darmiud Gavin one, All those box balls, lavenders, and alliums! Makes me want to spend money I just havent got!

clever baby! i don't like this venice one

it's very dull isn't it?

I like the Diarmuid Gavin one too, plus the Marshalls garden inspired by childrens designs and the garden designed for people with Alzheimers. Not so keen on the ones that are just green this year, I don't know enough about gardening to find the plant choice and lack of colour interesting.

My sister was a runner about 7-8 years ago at Chelsea for the BBC team and had a great time. I'd love to go but it gets so packed I'd end up getting stressed I think, apparently its really difficult to see the show gardens because of the amount of people all trying to do the same.

Lovely, aren't they. We went to Chelsea a couple of years ago and it was amazing. We'll go next year I think.

I got free tickets to go tomorrow. I'll take lots of pics & post them on here! I'm really excited!

I'm going on Thursday with my Mum. We're getting there at 8am to hopefully see a fair bit before it gets tooooo busy.

I haven't seen any of the TV programmes yet - what do you recommend I look out for especially....?
