— The RHS Shows began with the Great Spring Show at Chelsea in 1913, captivating visitors worldwide. Events like the Chelsea Flower Show have inspired millions to engage in gardening, benefiting their health and the environment. The success of these shows owes much to the contributions of growers, designers, landscape teams, partners, and RHS members, Victoria answers.
The Chelsea Flower Show, possibly the most famous among RHS shows, takes around four weeks to build after over a year of planning. Despite challenges like unpredictable weather, the RHS, with its century of experience and exceptional teams, consistently delivers an extraordinary gardening event.
