- Synopsis:
The Royal Horticultural Society’s Chelsea Flower Show 2003 is the Academy Awards of horticulture, the event where leading horticulturalists and garden designers take the stage for the most dazzling display of plants and gardens in the world. This year’s Chelsea boasts twenty three show gardens, an astonishing thirty two of the smaller Chic, Courtyard and City gardens, seven Sunflower Street gardens and the Pavilions, brimming with exhibits from all over the world, full of the newest and best in plants and design. This year’s Chelsea is truly an international floral feast of delight. There is inspiration for everyone, whether you garden is urban, rural, large or minute, and the trends seen here will sweep the globe. There are gardens from the Caribbean, California, the Mediterranean, Australia, Abu Dhabi and the Far East. And from the UK, a tour through the British countryside with a vision of Snowdonia, a natural Welsh escarpment with its waterfall, Ayrshire farmlands that inspired Robbie Burns, and Yorkshire, alive with opportunity. The Chelsea video is full of the new and surprising, it is filled with ideas to copy and take home, but above all, it captures the excitement and magic of the Show itself and the people who have worked round the clock to make it the ultimate in horticultural events. Carol Klein, plantswoman, writer and television personality presents this year’s programme. We glimpse the hard work of the build-up as exhibitors groom and tweak their displays into perfection for the press day and Royal visit. We hear from designers and exhibitors and experience the show in all its final glory. The Chelsea DVD provides a ravishing memento of this year’s show. It is a video to watch and enjoy long after the brief spell of the Show draws to a close. - Studio:
