World-class horticulture on show

RHS Chelsea is one of the most prestigious garden shows in the world — a true pinnacle of creativity, craftsmanship and innovation. We’re incredibly proud of our track record, with a Best in Show, four Gold Medals and one Silver Gilt Medal to our name. Each of our Chelsea gardens has afforded us unique opportunities to explore new ideas, push boundaries and bring bold visions to life. Sustainability is a core principle of our work, and every one of our Chelsea gardens has been carefully relocated and repurposed after the show.

For every garden we’ve created at Chelsea, we’ve brought together a dedicated, hand-picked team of growers, makers, artisans, architects, fabricators and landscape specialists — all collaborating to deliver gardens at the highest level. The show attracts global interest and media attention, and to win there is a defining moment in any designer’s career. But beyond the medals, it’s the creative challenge that brings us back — the chance to innovate with materials, methods and sustainable practices, to lead a team under pressure, and to refine every detail through precision planning.

Ultimately, what makes Chelsea so important to us is the way it elevates everything we do. The discipline, creative energy and innovation required to succeed at this level feeds directly back into our studio — inspiring the gardens we create every day and helping us to design exceptional, timeless spaces for the clients who entrust us with their vision.

Horatio’s Garden, 2023

Main Avenue’s 1st adaptive garden

Awarded the coveted Best in Show title and a Gold Medal at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2023, this adaptive garden put the priorities of all those with different mobility needs at its heart for the first time on Main Avenue.

Designed by Charlotte Harris and Hugo Bugg, this patient-led garden gave visitors to the show a sense of the hope and transformative effect having access to a Horatio’s Garden can have when coming to terms with a devastating spinal injury.  

M&G Garden, 2021

Main Avenue’s 1st pocket park

Awarded a Gold Medal at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2021, this garden stood for the importance of beautiful and restorative green spaces in the places we need them the most – our towns and cities.

Designed by Charlotte Harris and Hugo Bugg, the M&G garden was inspired by the belief that there is no corner too small, too unloved, or too battered that cannot be transformed into somewhere restorative and powerful for people and wildlife, while also providing many climate and environmental benefits.
