This year’s Chelsea Flower Show was our first as exhibitors. We’ve visited many times as guests, as Alex has often made pieces for show gardens, but being there as an exhibitor was a very different and exciting experience. After months of preparation to finally be there talking to customers and royalty – I had an interesting chat with HRH Prince Philip – was amazing. It’s always interesting to be face to face with customers and hear first hand what they think of our products. Mostly, I’m pleased to say, the feedback was terrific.
People really appreciate the plant-friendly shapes of our ‘upside down’ obelisks and our curvy conical arch was extremely popular. Our seating was also much admired, particularly by garden designers, and international visitors – we’ve been especially busy since Chelsea getting shipping prices to Europe and America.
If you didn’t make it to Chelsea, have a look at our pictures for a flavour of what you missed. Let us know what you think, we’re always keen on customer feedback. We really enjoyed our Chelsea experience and are already planning the stand for next year. Hopefully we’ll see you there.
