    I See the BBC are doing their bit for political correctness with the presenters this year 👍👍👍

    Maybe they’re just reflecting their audience while also being an equal opportunities employer ... Great stuff 😊 👍

    Congratulations to crocus for gold best in show. When I saw all that oak timber being burnt I thought how it looked fantastic. Congratulations crocus

    I always look forward to the excellent coverage of Chelsea on the TV each year but would never ever go as I hate crowds and crowding. I have been to Hampton Court a couple of times and will go again this year only because our lovely daughter is singing there with her choir. The local Kent Garden Show suits me just fine although they don't have the wonderful and mega-expense show gardens that Chelsea has. This year my wife and I are beginning to visit gardens in the National Gardens Scheme, and that is simply wonderful too.

    I've just watched the first CF show. No slebs! John pinaar what's the problem? I didn't hear any of the things that people were offended by.
    This is the first time in years that I've seen gardens that I like.
    I'm obviously another trendsetter. I've been doing naturalistic for ever
    What really concerns me is: what happens to those big trees? Please tell me they find a good home - even if it's not true.
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Apparently people buy 99% of the stuff so I've heard. How you'd get them trees home on the train is beyond me 😂😂

    The trees come from specialist nurseries and can always go back there until someone needs an instant garden.   They cost so much I can't see them just being chucked.

    I rather wanted Chris Beardshaw to win it again. I think he's an excellent plantsman as well as a good designer.
