Green fingers working at Chelsea Flower Show

Gardening is a pastime enjoyed by so many people, as demonstrated at the Chelsea Flower Show. This ranges from the King and Queen to a host of celebrities out in force from David Beckham to Cate Blanchett.

No matter how big the space available, seeing flowers bloom and seeds grow brings great joy and is a great opportunity to slow down, get outdoors and to be aware of nature in all her glory.

The Chelsea Flower show this year focused very much on sustainability, which is very appropriate, particularly given the extremes in weather that gardeners are facing. It included tips for garden balconies, where wind is often the biggest issue to manage and highlighted many gardening trends to ensure your plants can thrive no matter the weather.
