Just back from a speaking gig in the UK and wanted to share some images from the trip. While there, we were able to visit the Chelsea Garden Show for the first time, and here are some of the amazing displays of horticultural perfection.
Alliums
Chrysanthemums
Fuchsias
Lupines
Rebutias
Sarracenias
Lillies
Gladiolus
Narcissus
Agapanthus
Hellebores – all forced from Ashwood Nurseries
And looks who’s manning the Ashwood booth…Pine Knot’s Dick Tyler!
Thanks for the pics. What about some of the landscape exhibitors?
Still processing images…next post.
Wow! Flowering perfection. Are these competitive classes?
As I understand it, they are competing for gold, silver medals against a strict judging standard.
The lupines are the show stealer.
Cool. Love those alliums and of course the cacti. A lot of sweet rebutias and some astrophitums and other stuff. … and you got to get us that sarracenia in the foreground with a light yellow head. That’s cool!
