RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2009
« on: May 20, 2009, 08:37:12 AM »
The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is currently under way - 17 to 23 May.

If anyone is interested in following its progress you can visit the BBC web site.

It's not a venue we've been able to get to, but I know George was there last year (is it already a year ago when we last discussed this - YIKES!  :o - ) doesn't time fly.

Apologies if I'm a bit late reporting this but it caught me out.

Laurie.

A very good link Laurie.

I cant believe its a year ago either, Laurie.
I was on an Ulsterbus tour called the Great Gardens. We visited 3 RHS gardens, Hyde Hall on Tuesday, Wisley on Wed (Chelsea on Thu) and Harlow Carr on Fri.
Ive hundreds of photos and still havent got them into a WPG yet.   :-[
I have linked up most of the photos I took at Hyde Hall to plants in the Master Database, and will be doing that for the other RHS Gardens.
Wouldnt it be great to have more time for such great projects?

This week, I'm recording the BBC TV coverage of the Chelsea Flower show (Missed Monday  :'()
Cant be sitting about watching TV when theres daylight outside!

Exactly true George.

The way the weather is performing lately we're having to leap out into the garden in between the light showers to get some essential chores done.  The inevitable weeding, and cutting the rear lawn.  I haven't been able to cut the grass for well over a week now, so it's getting a tad long.  Just need these winds to dry it out enough to get a decent cut done.
