Chelsea Flower Show adds extra day

Tuesday, 30 November 2004 12:00 AM

Keen gardeners seeking new ideas will be able to attend the Chelsea Flower Show on a Saturday in 2005.

Organisers, the Royal Horticultural Society, are breaking with the established Tuesday to Friday format to give those previously unable to attend during the working week, the opportunity to enjoy a visit to Chelsea.

The total number of tickets for the show will remain the same, but attendance will be spread over four days rather than five offering a more comfortable experience.

The 2005 show will include over 20 large show gardens including examples from top designers Terence Conran, Tom Stuart-Smith and Christopher Bradley Hole.

Around 20 small gardens, in the Chic, City, Courtyard and Sunflower Street categories, will be on display offering inspiration to take home.

The show takes place from 24 - 28 May 2005 (24 & 25 reserved for RHS members).

Tickets are available from 22 November and must be booked in advance on 0870 906 3781 or at www.rhs.org.uk/chelsea">
