Chelsea Flower Show

chelsea.jpgHooksgreen Herbs were delighted to exhibit at the Chelsea Flower Show. We are very pleased to have been awarded a Silver Gilt Medal which has been a great team effort, and particular congratulations need to go to Thomas Dickson, who built the display in the Floral Marquee.

The planting has been kept very natural, and the judges were able to see the diversity of use when one grows herb. As an example, you will see the thyme varieties grown in the pathway are adept at filling a gap or adding a splash of colour to the front of a border.

The herbs in all their glory have generated a huge amount of interest, and the Chelsea display planting list has been included.
