The Journey to RHS Chelsea Begins…

15/05/2026

After months of planning, designing the stand, and carefully selecting the trees, the journey to build day at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show has finally begun.

From moving the trees into cold store to delay flowering, to bringing them into the glasshouse to encourage perfect bloom timing, every step has been carefully managed to make sure they are looking their very best.

Now we’re officially on our way to day one of the build — and we can’t wait to see it all come together.

We’re also excited to be part of this year’s Plant of the Year 2026 awards, with Prunus ‘Sumaura-fugenzo’ proudly shortlisted.
