Chelsea Garden Show is truly a sight to behold

The show only runs for five days, but manages to pack in 157,000 visitors over that time, all determined to see the latest plants and the very best of garden designs. The Queen was there, too, and is going to be here in town next month, and occasional queen look-alike Helen Mirren, in Cambridge for a movie this spring, was also at the show. Oh, and for the shopper, there’s the latest garden stuff in abundance, including both sublime and unusual sculptures — a three-metre snail cast in bronze going for a mere $30,000 — I know people who’d pay that much to get the real ones out of... The star of the show in design was the Daily Telegraph-sponsored garden by Andy Sturgeon. It did get politely squishy at times, but no more than any large show, and when it means seeing garden design morphed into fine art, rare plants to drool over and unsurpassed floral arrangements, it’s worth every moment. It won a gold medal and Best in Show award, a remarkable and no doubt restorative triumph for a young designer, whose wife died suddenly last summer, leaving him with three young children.
