| I have to say I agree with you melrt968, I went on Sunday and although I know the displays can be a bit tired on the final day, I was expecting some really great designs to inspire me. There were a couple of good ones that I thought were worth taking photos, but overall it was disappointing that it was not as good as those in the past have been. I had promised 'no new plants' but we stayed til the end and the bargins were just too tempting. But, with Arisaema for £1 each there was no way to pass them up! Of course once his wallet was out it was easy to get more plants LOL It will be awful if this is what the future displays are to be like. Maybe the organisers will actually take other shows into more consideration and arrange the dates accordingly. But then, maybe the designers will achieve a better show next year as, to be fair, this was the first year Chelsea had been extended so they did have a bit of a learning curve this year. Well, that's just my 2p worth :o) |
