Chelsea Flower Show 2015


The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is to a garden designer what Paris Fashion Week is to a fashion designer. For me it's an annual must-do and a great place to gather inspiration for my own projects.

Here are a few things that caught my eye as I wondered round.

Sculpture
There were some great ideas for focal points and interesting artworks. The man crouching by the ruin had an eerie, transulsant appearance. 
If you're ever in need of some kitsch then what better than a giant cherry?






Best in Show, well for me anyway....
There were a couple of gardens that stood out for me, the colour combinations and simple layouts work well.








Planting
Deep blues and violets next to burnt orange is the absolute on-trend of gardening combinations this season.






A few extra highlights.....
