    I think it's been the best and most balanced coverage I can remember and not just about the big show gardens which have dominated coverage in previous years.

    I agree Hosta - I think it's made it all seem really accessible too - I've been on here several years now and I can never remember so many people saying 'I must go next year' as have been saying that this year.

    And I thought that last nights GW from Chelsea was really good.  Much better than I expected image

    Seemed pretty good to me.



    Anyone see that bit about that huge carpet bedding garden in Dubai? Woah, what it lacked in taste it made up for in colour and spectacle!

    Once again a great Chelsea. One day my dream of going there will come true. The beautiful colours of the flowers were spell binding. The veg were unbelievable wish mine were like that on my Allotment. Still I have learnt a few tips so maybe I will be more successful in time.

    Yes I think it has had been a good overall show  for TV

    Dubai , amazing carpet planting , the cost must be amazing image

    GWRS . I've been to both,and although the show gardens at Chelsea are undoubtedly better, I prefer the atmosphere at HC.

    I still haven't watched much of it and I can't remember who half the gardens were designed by or which one's which. Must be  my age  image

      Verd - you'll enjoy the garden visit on Beechgrove I think image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
