Creating the Chelsea show garden
Discover how St James’s show garden ‘Imagine the World to be Different’ has been created with this short film by our sponsor Project Giving Back.
Located on the main avenue at RHS Chelsea, St James’s garden encourages visitors to cherish the earth and one another, taking as its theme ‘Imagine the World to be Different’. It recognises the importance of gardens as welcoming spaces for healing and contemplation and celebrates the revitalising qualities of urban green spaces.
The garden is designed by award-winning landscape architect Robert Myers, a six-time gold medallist at the flower show. It is being brought to life by Stewart Landscapes and is sponsored by Project Giving Back.
