Careful care for the Chelsea plants!

We can't risk wonky stems so the Alliums are going on support canes!

We are gradually moving the plants outside - a mix of bulbs, perennials and annuals - although quite a few remain in our unheated glasshouse for the moment.

RHS feature on the Freedom to Flourish garden

1/3/2025

The ‘Freedom to Flourish Garden’ features a host of East Anglian coastal plants and is all about the benefits of slowing down. The design explores the mental health benefits of living an unhurried lifestyle and spending time in nature, gardens and gardening.

Hundreds of plants are being cossetted in our growing area ahead of their trip to London.

You can read all about the garden on the RHS website:

It couldn't have gone any better: The Talitha Arts Garden was not only awarded Gold at this year's Chelsea Flower Show, it was also judged best garden in the All About Plants category!

Congratulations to designers Joe & Laura Carey, and to everyone else involved with the entry.

The garden featured on today's coverage of the Chelsea Flower Show on the BBC, with a visit from presenter Monty Don.

View it here, starting approximately 35 minutes in and lasting about 10 minutes:

Our own Susie Davis also appeared on this evening's ITV Anglia News talking about Katie's Garden's role in growing many of the plants for the garden.

If you are going to the show make sure you seek out the garden in the Great Pavilion.

It’s a Goodbye & Godspeed to the plants we’ve grown for the Talitha Arts Garden!
They have now headed off to the Chelsea Showground to wow visitors to the Great Pavilion next week.
 
Following the Chelsea Flower Show they will be permanently relocated to the grounds of St Margaret’s House community centre in Bethnal Green, London.
 
We have given the plants the best care we can over the year and we wish designers Joe & Laura Carey and the rest of the Chelsea team a trouble-free set-up and a successful show!

Show time's getting closer!

Designers Joe & Laura Carey and some of the Chelsea team came for a visit to the nursery to check up on the plants' progress.

The good news is that most plants are looking on course for peaking at just the right time! It was decided a handful should get moved into the warmth of Allyhouse to help speed them along.

There was also time for a little playing around with plant combinations!
