Hardy's Cottage Plants Chelsea Display in May 2021


had my own early visit to Chelsea today. Rosy Hardy, who has won gold for her displays, had prepared for the May show which is now postponed until September. She says she can't change it as the plants take about two years to prepare, so she set up her stand at Hardy Cottage Plants in Whitchurch and allowed us to visit by booking. It was a wet day but the rain just held off and it was a delight to be able to go round the stand in the open air (it is usually in a tent which means weaker filtered light) and without the usual crowds. The stand was exceptional with masses of plants in perfect condition, beautifully displayed. I particularly liked the irises. For a few photos, click here https://flic.kr/s/aHsmVFYKs4
