Chelsea’s show gardens by top designers are second to none. For 2019, gardens include a Facebook garden, celebrating the positive aspects of social media
There are other flower shows, but none quite like Chelsea. This premier horticultural show, which has been a key event on the London calendar for more than 100 years, will be pitching up at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea from 21 to 25 May 2019.
According to the show’s website Chelsea is, “world-renowned, glamorous and quintessentially British … a truly unique and unforgettable day out.”
It’s not far wrong. Whether you’re looking for ideas for a project, to mingle with the gardening glitterati or just chill in a gorgeous environment, Chelsea is always worth a visit.
Here are five reasons to book before it completely sells out:
1. To be wowed by world-class garden design
If you’re looking for inspiration, Chelsea’s show gardens by top designers are second to none. For 2019, gardens include a Facebook garden, celebrating the positive aspects of social media; a Silent Pool Gin garden, with botanical water wall, and a Back to Nature garden, whose designers include the Duchess of Cambridge.
2. To boost your physical and mental health
Being outdoors surrounded by plants has proven benefits for our wellbeing, so just soaking up the atmosphere can help relieve your stresses and strains. Across the show garden categories, designers highlight the positive power of plants – check out Kate Gould’s uplifting space for children with complex needs or Andrew Duff’s sustainable urban retreat.
3. For some retail therapy
Chelsea’s trade stands have everything from spectacular sheds to unique gifts and the latest innovative garden products. The show’s great pavilion is a gardener’s paradise too, with stunning plants from the top nurseries of Britain and beyond.
4. To watch artists at work
This year, six gorgeous garden buildings will house artisan studios where you can watch craftspeople at work, in mediums from sculpture to textile design.
5. To feast on summer treat
There are plenty of dining and drinks options, including Raymond Blanc’s enchanting Jardin Blanc for fantastic food and cocktails in a garden setting. Or there’s the Rock Bank Restaurant for locally-sourced meats, sustainable fish and seasonal vegetables.

I started my career in 2008 at one of the largest agencies in the UK before taking the leap into the independent agency sector. I joined Plaza in 2012 and I’ve never looked back. Being part of a boutique family owned agency has been such a rewarding experience allowing me to be involved in every aspect of the lettings process. I have developed my skill and knowledge over the years by successfully passing the NFOPP Technical Award in Residential Lettings and Property Management. A nationally recognised qualification of Propertymark; The National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA) and Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA) I’m proud to be part of a company that has been involved in the community for nearly 50 years.

Dear Eitan
In this whole sorry saga, with headbutting, unproactive lawyers, and a comatose estate agent etc etc, you have been a beacon of light throughout. Efficient, professional and responsive. This would never have got done without you.
Thank you.
All the best.

I generally dealt with the Marble Arch branch most of the time, but I can also say that the Knightsbridge office was also exceptionally helpful and professional on the occasions I did deal with them. Plaza Estates in general are excellent.

Have interacted with Plaza Estates across a couple of sites and always been impressed. Maurice must be the hardest working, most dedicated, helpful and knowledgeable account manager for any company anywhere! A real asset to the team!

Hope both of you are doing well. I wanted to thank you for always being there for us and for addressing our concerns promptly; safe to say you have been the best agents I have had the pleasure of interacting with.

We have owned our Flat since 2008, which we purchased through Plaza. Our relationship with Plaza goes back to 1982 when we purchased a nearby flat and Plaza have handled all our lettings since then. I would have no hesitation in recommending Plaza - they will find you a good tenant and ensure your ...
