The Chelsea Flower Show 2012 (Part 2)

By NEILMUIR1
September 1, 2012

The Chelsea Flower Show is an eagerly awaited event after our long winter. It is the first time everyone gets together and can see the new plants as well as creations of sculptors and artists. A lot of gardeners use it as a social event, or to order sensational plants for the coming season in whatever variety interests them. On the final day a lot of the plants are sold off and London is awash with a sea of plants. It is a truly amazing sight!

Your narrative it wonderful but your photos are outstanding. You certainly have an eye for composition.
I hope everyone enjoys this as I have.

Thanks for your time and effort.

Hugs,

Nancy

Dear Nancy, thank you for your comments but wait to see Hampton Court! Where do you want the Gorilla? I have put a lot of pictures on about the front, rear and the gardens of Hampton Court Palace which you so want as your house. Rolling on the floor laughing
Keep well.
