This year a new garden was successfully installed in Salisbury Court, the private courtyard within the Margaret Thatcher Infirmary.
For the first time in its history, this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show will be held in September instead of May. Grounds Manager Ric Glenn says it will pose challenges as well as opportunities.
On the Royal Hospital’s south grounds the D-Day 75 Garden stands as an ephemeral and touching reminder of the sacrifice made by so many on the shores of Normandy on the 6th June 1944.
When the Chelsea Flower Show comes to the Royal Hospital Chelsea each May, our grounds are in the spotlight – but the gardens here are a wonderful asset all year round and an integral part of our heritage and culture.
