As the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2017 comes to a close, Yorkshire can leave with its head held high. 3 of the 9 gardens on main avenue were designed by Yorkshire designers.  Tracy Foster (sponsored by Welcome To Yorkshire) who recreated a spectacular scene from the North Yorkshire coastline, Lee Bestall who reimagined 3 phases of the history of Covent Garden (for CAPCO) and Professor Nigel Dunnett who presented to us a sustainable garden for the RHS.

The gardens designed by Tracy Foster and Lee Bestall may not have been the cutting edge design that the RHS judges were looking for, but both were extremely well received by the public at this years Chelsea Flower Show 2017.
