RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2024

The RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2024, one of the most prestigious horticultural events in the world, is set to captivate visitors with its stunning displays from May 21st to May 25th. This year's show promises to be a spectacular celebration of creativity, sustainability, and the timeless beauty of nature, attracting gardening enthusiasts, designers, and plant lovers from around the globe.

Creepers have been involved with Chelsea for many years and 2024 is certainly no exception. We are extremely proud to say that we are involved with 16 gardens and trade stands across this year's event, working with some extremely talented individuals from our industry.

One in particular to look out for is The Boodles Garden designed by principal landscape designer at Landform Consultants, Catherine McDonald. This will be Catherine’s sixth RHS Chelsea garden and marks her return after a five year break following a run of gold medals in 2017 and 2018 for the pioneering non-alcoholic drinks brand Seedlip. We took a tagging trip to Germany with Catherine for the project where we sourced some beautiful Taxus bacatta ‘Hopkens Gigant’ that you will be able to spot in the garden!

Creepers have also been getting heavily involved in the SGD lately, taking part in two conferences and confirming our sponsorship for the 2025 awards. Continuing our support for the society, we are supplying the plants for the SGD stand at Chelsea this year.

Our head of horticulture Michael Buck says:

“It has been a real pleasure, as always, to work with Catherine Mcdonald on The Boodles Garden. We contract grew the majority of her plants in the garden from our New Forest site along with Baz Grainger’s Killik & Co Sanctuary Garden.

We supplied 16 different gardens and trade stands in the end, from one tree to a full supply. Most notably, Alan Williams and Hannam & Taylor’s trade stand. Also a large number of shrubs and hedging for Sophie Parmenter and The National Autistic Society Garden.

It is always a real pleasure to be able to supply the show, demonstrating horticultural excellence throughout the 9 month process.”
