may I present you with a favourite photo ( usually a favourite garden, too !) form each show I have been to. I like Hampton Court Flower show for its being so down-to-earth ( literally, it gets really muddy when it rains ;-), relaxed and very spacious, which makes it less crowded than Chelsea. And you can buy plants in the Flower Marquee!

Hampton Court Flower Show 2015
One of my favourite gardens from this show is the City Twitchers ( Summer Gardens category ) designed by Sarah Keyser and built by Living Landscapes.
It is a beautiful mix of rustic ( wicker ) with stylish ( white and green colour scheme ), all brought together by a modern, well-structured design with sharp and clean hard-landscaping. It looks like a well designed garment, very feminine and elegant. This is a bird-watching environment for any fashion-conscious lady indeed and yet, very relaxed and nature-friendly.
