Inspiration, innovation, quality and creativity are the trademarks of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. There you’ll find the world’s leading garden designers, nurseries and growers showing off stunning displays in what becomes one of the most exclusive and exciting showcase of dazzling array of plants from the traditional to the exotic from Cornwall to the Caribbean, Sweden to South Africa and Jersey to Grenada.
This year’s presentation focused on a fisherman’s shelter, nestling in a tranquil bay where its derelict jetty has been worn away by the theme “Time & Tide”. This display impressed the judges with its accurate depiction of floral arrangement and attention to detail.
The team was special guests at a reception hosted by the High Commissioner Joseph Charter and attended by the Minister for Communications, Works and Transport, Sen. Brenda Hood, Lance Corporal Johnson Beharry VC and several Grenadian Nationals.
