Oh, England is full of marvelous gardens....and Chelsea is an
experience you will never forget. Be prepared for crowds you would
not believe:-) I found that they thinned out as it got toward
evening. I will never forget - and it's been 15 years since I went -
the incredible displays of Delphiniums, Clematis and Peonies - took
my breath away! >>
Do plan an entire day to see the Chelsea show. The hospital grounds are open
and concerts take place for the foot weary. I am sure you are planning your
trip carefully but just a reminder that you must have a ticket to Chelsea in
advance, no tickets are sold at the gates. It is best to buy your ticket
here before your leave. Certain types of equipment are not allowed,
strollers for instance.
One thing that we admired, a bit from the horticultural scene, is that the
entire show is built and removed in a few weeks with running water in rest
rooms on the field. It runs overhead, amazing you with the clever
engineering.
