We had a great weekend at BBC Gardeners World Live, here is our finished display, and we even brought home a Platinum Award!
Above is our Heuchera Isabella, named after Richards Aunty.
Heuchera Pauline and Tiarella Emerald Ellie both bred by us at our nursery.
Our sales tables all set up for everyone who made pre-orders and for new purchasers.
Thanks so much to everyone for their support! Our next show is July 5th-10th at RHS Hampton Court Palace flower show.
It’s been a full week getting ready for BBC Gardeners World Live. We got the van packed up the night before we left for an early start on Tuesday. Once we arrived we got right to work planting our display!
Managed to sneak away for a few photos of what everyone else was doing, some of the displays were already coming along really nicely.
Once we got all the plants where wanted them, it was just a matter of filling them in and making sure our moss was as perfect as it could be.
Here’s our mostly finished display! Was a bit of work but we are loving the colour combinations, everything looks so fresh and bright. We’ll just have a tidy and make sure everything is perfect for judging later today. Will keep you updated after the weekend on the rest of the show.
Don’t forget to follow along on our Facebook page for live show updates and photos when we are out at shows. Not to mention photos from our own garden and nursery.
We have been busy busy busy preparing for the BBC Gardeners World Live Show this Weekend from 16th – 19th June 2016. Come find us in Floral Marquee FM 83
Gardeners World live has a complete change this year, under its new team and management, it all sounds really interesting. It promises to be a great show, come along and take a look at the new layout.
Lots of gardening experts and specialists in one place and a great chance to hear the experts and celebrities in the theatre.
Hope to see you there!
This past weekend Richard held down the tent at RHS Harlow Carr flower show while Vicky came back to the nursery to pack up orders to be shipped and get ready for BBC Gardeners World Live this coming weekend.
Super busy around these parts, but we wouldn’t have it any other way! Here’s a few snaps from the Harlow Carr show if you weren’t able to make it.
We were right at the bottom of the hill, near the stream!
Over the stream and off to the woods and a surprise ruin.
The view from the back of our stand, stunning nearly as good as our Heucheras!
Richard watering our display.
From our stand you can see the steps up to the wood on the other side of the stream. Lots of great plants with some amazing foliage.
Looking over our colourful plants you can see the bit where the stream runs along the wood.
Our mini display, all displays are mini and they are very lovely. Here you can get some planting ideas on our display.
More great Heucheras in a kaleidoscope of colours.
The candelabra primulas near the stream opposite our display look stunning!
The babbling stream.
One last photo of our mini display, we really loved it!
Here are some more photos from this past weeks RHS Chelsea Flower Show. There were some stunning displays, and we are very proud to say we brought home a gold medal to add to our growing collection.
Phillip Johnson’s handmade poppy display. Almost 300,000 individually crocheted poppies made up the display made by around 50,000 contributors.
Very happy with our newest gold medal. It was great to see some of you at the show, thanks for supporting us!
