The best footage from the Chelsea flower show that I've seen yet 🫶 Thank you!
Thank you for your very nice comment
Jenny
Well there's far too many things to even begin to comment on so I'll simply say I thoroughly enjoyed this little trip to the Chelsea show and want to say thank you to Jenny and Olivia for transporting us there. 😎✌️💚
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it
Hartelijk bedank voor je video
Thanks so much for taking along with you for your Chelsea visit it was a fantastic tour. You and Olivia look like movie stars touring around .😊
Thank you, it was wonderful and I’m so pleased you enjoyed it too

Thank you so much! What a wonderful video, full of helpful tips and interesting observations…I enjoyed your programme far more than any of the BBC Chelsea episodes that I watched last week. 🌱😊👍
Thank you so much

Living in the US, I’ve heard of the Chelsea Garden Show but had no idea until your tour just how massive it is. Thank you so much for showing us around to all the highlights. The show winning Agapanthus was amazing! You and your daughter are beautiful!
Thank you so much, I’m really glad you enjoyed it. It really is massive and there is just so much to see. It attracts visitors from all the over the world, we heard several American accents! We went for the first time three years ago and it has become our must see ritual. A lovely mother/daughter trip and Olivia’s ambition is to one day have a garden there herself! We can but dream!
Thanks for watching
Jenny
@@MurphysGardenThank you again for a wonderful tour. I’ve promised myself now to travel to see it in person!
You must be so proud of your daughters ambition. She is stunning and will make you proud, I’m sure☘️
Thanks for a great tour of the show including parts Gardeners World failed to reach.
Best summary of the show I have watched. Thank you, I did like the kitchen garden that was on different levels the most. I am looking forward to watching your video on your vegie garden.
Thank you for your kind comments. I’m not sure that my veggie patch is quite at the same standard - hope you’re not disappointed !🤣
Thanks for watching
Jenny
All the flowers in our gardens, where once upon a time weeds , they have just been improved
!!! Please give the new ones time to reach that status .
Thank you lovely coverage of the small industry’s at Chelsea
A weed is only a plant growing in the wrong place. A gardener who edits allows for weaker insect beneficial plants to flower where they may otherwise be choked out by something more pernicious. In our garden verbena Bonariensis is a weed, I love it and its great for bees but I don’t want a monoculture and a garden full of just that one plant, I want other sources of nectar too. A interesting topic which I will do a video on soon
Thanks for watching
So stunningly beautiful and I’m so jealous that you get to live there in the UK a gardeners paradise in my mind. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks to show us such a beautiful gardens siting on bed you are great 👍

Excellent tour! I felt like I was there. Much praise for the camera work. Couldn't be easy with crowds.
Thank you so much, nice to have you join us!
We call those sliding doors barn doors here in America lol. Ty for taking us along to Chelsea! Was so lovely to see! 🥰
I love those doors, thanks for watching
Jenny
I have a big native flowerbed and even it needs weeded a couple if time during the growing season.
Yes, some things are more invasive than others and it’s up to the gardener to decide how best to manage things. Glad to see at Chelsea this year, the whole weed obsession has passed, all the gardens were fabulous, can’t wait to share them- just editing the footage!
Lovely video. Bought EB last year potted at Bodnant Gardens ( well worth seeing their Roses in June/July etc) EB now doing exceptionally well in soil.
Thank you, I can’t think what EB stands for, am I being a bit thick? It must be something I mentioned but I can’t think what, would love to know. I’ve visited Bodnant Gardens several times and it’s a beautiful garden
Jenny
I’ve worked it out - Emily Brontë!
❤
Thank you so much for this wonderful tour, made me feel as though I was there. I loved the color palette of Sarah Price's garden, so inspirational! I like how you described it as a watercolor painting, spot on!
Absolutely very beautiful garden , plants and flowers are all looking gorgeous .

Cornus Kousa ‘China Girl’ is a beauty, I did some research and a video on ‘best deciduous trees’ and it was on there, if you are interested, I go through it’s growing requirements
Thanks for watching
Jenny
This was really informative, thank you so much.
Thank you
Fabulous
Thank you
Beautiful garden visit 👌👌
Thank you
I think we should be focusing more on native plants, it's more sustainable. Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them and their value.
I’ve noticed that pollinators if given the choice prefer “weeds” or as I call them wildflowers.
I think if a garden is full of a diverse range of plants which flower at different times of the year, then pollinating insects have the maximum benefit. Allowing one plant, be it a ‘weed’ or ‘wildflower’ to dominate results in a monoculture. Our garden has so many more birds and insects now than when it was just long unmowed grass. I will explore this topic in a future video but thanks for your comments
Jenny
Can you please tell me what those silver round ball plants are at 6:15 in the serpentine walk? I’m in love with them!
They are lovely. I think they are Calocephalus brownii 'Extra Silver' (grow in full sun, in a South-facing or West-facing aspect in a sheltered location
H3)
Hope this helps
Jenny
Mirrors in the garden are death traps for birds!!!!
Good point
“Up” to London.
On a traditional map, North is often depicted as being at the top, giving the impression that moving "up" corresponds to moving North. However, this convention is arbitrary and chosen for convenience. There is no inherent reason why North should be considered "up" and South should be considered "down." It's merely a convention for map orientation.
In terms of gravity and Earth's physical orientation, there is no literal "up" or "down." The idea of "up" is relative to our position on Earth. If you were to dig a hole in London and another person dug a hole in a location considered "up" on a map, you would still be standing upright, relative to your surroundings, and not floating away. Gravity keeps us grounded, making the concept of "up" or "down" relative.
When it comes to air travel, the direction to London can vary depending on the flight path and prevailing winds. Airplanes take routes that optimize efficiency, fuel consumption, and other factors, which may result in routes that do not correspond to the direction indicated on a map. Airlines use flight paths based on navigation systems, weather patterns, and air traffic control, rather than adhering strictly to the notion of "up" on a map.
The concept of "up" and "down" on a map is a human construct. Different cultures and civilizations throughout history have used various orientations for their maps, with no definitive "up" or "down" direction. It's essential to recognize that this perspective is subjective and influenced by societal norms.
@@User57885 thank you for that, very interesting. As a Brit, one only ever goes “up to London’ regardless of topographic/ cartographic coordinates. It’s a cultural phrase not a topographic fact. I think its to delineate the importance of the capital and the fulcrum of the Crown?
deos anymore know that variety of Cornus kousa at 17 min?
Not sure what variety it is but it is Pollyanna Wilkinson’s Chelsea 2023 garden ‘women in horticulture’. She’s on instagram and you could drop her a message and see if you get a response.
