Designed by Phil Johnson of Phil Johnson Landscapes and supported by Wes Fleming, this sustainable garden certainly created waves at Chelsea. One of the largest displays with 300 tonnes of rock being transported from to Chelsea from Scotland. The sustainable garden within an ‘urban environment’ featured a gorge, waterfall, and billabong. Lush ferns with bright kangaroo paws and bottle trees featured reflecting the imperatives for the design which included water capture and conservation, promotion of sustainability, use of recycled materials and solar panels. This is Flemings’ ninth year for supporting an Australian garden, and the seventh and last year Trailfinders will be exhibiting at Chelsea. Mike Gooley (Chairman of Trailfinders) was present with his wife, Fiona.
Below are some images of Chelsea in general, the Trailfinders Garden and some well known faces amongst the crowd.

Older members of Kensington recently celebrated the Queen’s Coronation with a wonderful lunch at The Milestone Hotel. Held in conjunction with The Kensington Magazine, the only criteria for those attending had to be that they were over 80. Some exceeded rather well by being closer to 100 than to even to 90! The wine flowed and conversation was animated. Last year the excuse was to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. Next year, who knows – the excuse might be to ‘wet the babies head’!
