I have been to the Chelsea Flower Show with my mom, about 10 years ago. It was wonderful! Nothing like any flower show here, we go to Boston every year, which is nice, but pales in comparison to Chelsea.

I love the garden designs and look forward each year to viewing them on the BBC television coverage... especially from the different countries...I saw the kangaroo fern for the first time there and actively searched out this plant as I love ferns but have problems keeping them healthy in the dry heated living room. This fern is fab for dealing with a non-humid environment.

I was watching the TV last night and someone has apparently included a chicken coop in one of the designs

The presenter said it cost £3400 ($6800) though . . . and frankly people on here have ones which are just as nice if not nicer.
