We've had a lovely time at the Hampton Court Garden Festival, apart from the journey there. Took 4 1/2 hours, not the 3 hours that Google maps said.
Loads of flowers and stands and things for sale. I liked Carol Klein's garden best but there was huge queue to walk though it so we didn't. I loved the huge floral marquee. I've been looking for a scented clematis called Betty Corning for some time and I found and bought one from one of the clematis growers.
We also saw Adam Frost and Arit Anderson in one of the show gardens. I was slightly disapointed with the show gardens, not enough flowers or roses but I liked the Charleston one although it was a bit formal.

Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Carol Klein's garden.
Peter Beales' rose arch, got a gold.
I think this is Carol's.

Probably a good thing that l'm nowhere near that floral marquee !
@WAMS the horse is made of driftwood.
I also liked Carol Klein’s garden. Adorable this woman. So much energy.
If there isn’t more than one maker, we have a wooden horse maker (and other items) in Gloucestershire who is also selling at the rare plant fair.
I ♥ my garden.
