The Chelsea Flower Show, a celebration of British horticulture and the catwalk of the gardening world is perhaps not at the forefront of the public consciousness as snow still coats much of the landscape and all but the hardiest flora and fauna remains sensibly underground.

However with temperatures finally becoming (slowly) milder the countryside will soon explode into life and gardening gloves will be donned once again.

The RHS Chelsea Flower Show celebrates its centenary year promising an extra spectacular show brimming with colour and creativity. Many exhibitors will be marking the occasion with centenary themed displays and the celebrations don’t stop at the end of the garden path.
