Believe it or not, this year's RHS Chelsea Flower Show is just a couple of weeks away Tuesday 20 May to Saturday 24 May, when for the 85th year it will again be held at the showground in the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, in London, UK. Parking in the area is virtually non-existant and in any case, the show is located within the London congestion zone, so you have to pay a fee to enter the area in a car. For years, visitors to the show have been advised to travel by public transport, there is an underground station only a few minutes walk from the entrance to the show, and this is really the only way to get there, unless of course you are one of those visitors lucky enough to afford to arrive by helicopter or chauffeur driven car.
Now if you feel lucky, the RHS is running a competition that gives green gardeners the chance to win a pair of tickets on Thursday 22 May, for the 2008 Flower Show, together with a personal tour round the show with Show Manager, Alex Baulkwill.
To
enter the competition, simply visit the Chelsea website and tell the organisers your best, eco-friendly, green gardening tip.
