The Royal Horticulture Society really knows how to throw a garden party! The Chelsea Flower Show, an annual event is held at the Royal Hospital Chelsea and party of London’s summer social season, began on Tuesday and ends on Saturday.
Celebrating the 149th anniversary of the show, the designers this year have really pushed the envelope creating a replica of a Thai Temple using over 100,000 blooms that took 800 people 33 days to complete! Hanging and vertical gardens made an appearance as well as Dame Helen Mirren who unveiled a new hybrid Nepenthes named in her honor.
The sculptures, flowers, and awards make the Chelsea Flowers Show a must-see. Add it to your bucket list!
