Five teams are left to battle it out for a place in the final. In this episode their onions and chrysanthemums are laid bare on the show bench for Jim to judge. In their biggest task yet, Jonathan challenges the allotmenteers to create a pedestal that includes chrysanthemums and other flowers from their patch, whilst preserves expert Thane Prince sets them the tough challenge of making well set jellies and smooth fruit butters.
