Hunter Wellingtons: RHS Chelsea Flower Show 25-29 May 2010



Dig out those Hunter Wellingtons for this years RHS Chelsea Flower show from the 25th-29th May and make sure you see the following gardens!


The L'Occitane Garden uses the landscape of Provence as their inspiration with garden key plant species that can only be found in the South of France and Mediterranean.  This garden was designed by James Towillis and built by Peter Dowle Plants & Gardens.

Keeping to the French theme we love the Fashion & Flowers with Christian before Dior.  This garden celebrates the life of Christian Dior's childhood love of flowers and design, which was to be a major influence on his perfumes and couture collections.

A Joy Forever is a garden for people who love thier very own gardens, but who don't have a lot of spare time to spend.  A bespoke fireplace with a wicker sofa create a feeling of an outdoor room, whilst the planting has shade-tolerant perennials and a strong backbone of evergreen plants to provide interest throughout the year.   This garden was designed by Kate Gould and built by The Garden Builders.

Stand by to discover what is new to Chelsea this year!  Get real gardening advice and discover the RHS Chelsea 2010 Plant of the Year. Competition will be stiff between the gardens as always but also in the Plant of the Year award where 'Ian Hislop' is up against an aubergine.

As every gardener knows the British weather can be temperamental at the best of times so it is no surprise about Hunter Boots collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society, which features a beautiful range of designs inspired by the society's botanical art archive.  This range comes in 3 styles, the Tall Welly, Mid Welly and Garden Clog, a perfect gift for any gardener!
