So, RHS Chelsea is over and I wish I had been able to go. On the other hand the BBC provided truly excellent and comprehensive coverage. I drove Ann mad watching the hour long show every day, although often the next morning or late at night, but it was excellent in HD. So.. what did I like, well my favourite gardens were:

The Brontës’ Yorkshire Garden

The Brewin Dolphin Garden

Homebase Teenage Cancer Trust Garden

The Laurent-Perrier Bicentenary Garden

But in many ways it's the themes, the visits to the Pavilion and the lovely range of flowers and plants that I find most appealing and that's why next year I shall be going.
