A look ahead to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show with Arthur Parkinson - Episode 172

May is all about the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, and we’ll be bringing the abundant beauty of Perch Hill’s cutting garden to our trade stand.
That’s why in this week’s ‘grow, cook, eat, arrange’, Sarah and Arthur are taking an exciting look forward to our spot at the show, the hard work it’s taken to prepare, and highlights of what you can expect to see across the week-long spectacle.
In this episode, discover:
- How Adam Nicolson’s magical design is being brought to life at our stand, inspired by our renowned potting shed from 2017
- Some of the most stunning varieties we’ll be bringing with us, and the preparation it’s taken to have them ready

Please show the shed. As someone across the the pond it’s the only way I can see it❤

Sounds all lovely. Hopefully you will be able to make a nice video, for all of us who live abroad and won't be able to vist the Chelsea Flower Show ourselves. Both of you are so inspirational with your eye for color and arrangements, combined with love for wildlife and biodiversity.

I’ve stopped going to the Chelsea flower show now. It’s noticeable that within the marquee, the spaces between the exhibitors is getting wider so less are coming. I could near enough see from one diagonal corner to the other where years gone by, the view would have been blocked with superb floor to ceiling exhibits. Some of the previous show gardens lost me. One was of a quarry with no flowers, another had a large farm yard container. By noon, the place is rammed with people.
