The 2015 Chelsea Flower Show was a riot of people, colour, stands, food and cameramen. Close up you can see the quality of a ‘Chelsea flower’.
The Pink Delia is just perfect - can’t you imagine it as a skirt in a flowing, folded silk? The clashing Neon Tulips made me want to line neon leather behind a yellow cashmere collar, and the Ladybird Poppy looked exquisite with its bold colours.
Stepping away from the bustle to look deep into these well-groomed plants, I find the stunning palette of nature such a pure form of inspiration.
