Step inside the Great Pavilion at RHS Chelsea Flower Show and you'll find the Plant Heritage Zone, a celebration of our National Plant Collection Holders® and the plant conservation work that Plant Heritage Members help support.
We're thrilled to announce that the Collection Holders who joined us in the Plant Heritage Zone have been hugely successful with their medals.
- It's a Gold medal for Jonathan Sheppard and his cosmos display
- Brantwood and Fiona Butcher receive a Gold medal for their wisteria display
- Mary Baker has been awarded Silver-gilt for her foxgloves
- Barry Clarke has been awarded a Silver medal for his Rubus
- Chelsea first-timer Luci Skinner receives a Silver-gilt medal for her scented leaf Pelargonium collection.
Plus the central Plant Heritage stand has been awarded a Silver-gilt medal. This stand mirrors the theme of our All About Plants garden, by focusing on the Missing Collectors we need to continue our vital conservation work into the future.
Congratulations to all the other plant nurseries exhibiting in the Great Pavilion who hold National Plant Collections and have won medals for their fabulous displays, from Dibleys houseplants to English Sweet Peas. Special congratulations to Jonathan Hogarth at Hogarth Hostas who was awarded a gold medal for his display of small and miniature Hosta for the first time.
