RHS Flower Show 2018
You know the summer is not far away when Royal Horticultural Society is in town. It was our 3rd time as well so all and all it was supposed to be a great day.
The grey sky soon cleared out and it was like a different day all together.
All the wonderful displays were perfectly on trend. You are aware that everyone is loving mossier plants now and begonias are very much in vogue! Especially spotted ones.
I think they went with less plastic theme too. All the nurseries and schools wheelbarrows were with that theme in mind and a lot of recycled flower arrangements and installations can be seen aroud the grounds.
The day in my home started silly early. Big guy refused to go back to sleep after about 4am. So he had a little nap so we could see things in peace.
Taking a spirited (grumpy and stubborn) child to flower show can be challenging but there was ice cream and lovely chips. We didn’t make it to kids area it was a bit disappointing actually..
But considering it is child friendly events some of the grumpy folks were real grumpy observing his defiance. And actually some old lady tatted at me. But she then was stuck in front of my mother in law walking really slowly with a pram! Ha!
But I had a good day. And I didn’t buy any plants! But got info about national trust place not far from the city. These guys had excellent knowledgeable and friendly staff! Stay tune for that one.
Oh and there are more pics form the show on my instagram @verysmallfeet
