Brexit hits the Chelsea Flower Show

The world of showbusiness collides in London this week with the world of gardening in the form of the colourful explosion that is the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Due to attract its usual capacity of more that 150,000, the show officially kicked off yesterday with royal family visitors, including Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles, wandering among the blooms.

Still very much regarded as one of the society events of the year, you can’t help but notice there are substantially fewer showgardens than normal.
