A series of three programmes from the Royal Horticultural Society's Chelsea Flower Show
Presented by Peter Seabrook Roy Lancaster and Janet Ellis
Since 1913 the RHS has staged its spectacular
Chelsea Flower Show in the grounds of the Royal
Hospital, Chelsea. This programme looks back over the last 75 years of the Chelsea shows, the changes in fashion, world events which affected the show and, above all, the way in which plants have evolved to fit in with modern domestic conditions - from giant tree rhododendrons brought back from the forests of China and the Himalayas to the modern dwarf rhododendron hybrids. The programme talks to exhibitors such as rose specialist
Rosemary McCarthy and orchid breeder Ray Bilton , and look at the way scientific advancement has changed methods of plant propagation; and discover what is involved in producing perfect blooms. Production assistants
