Members of the Royal Family visited the Chelsea Flower Show on Sunday (22 May) ahead of the official opening to the public on Monday.
The royal family traditionally tour the gardens at Chelsea, and this year, despite the Queen’s mobility issues, she attended - opting to be chauffeured round on a buggy for her comfort.
She looked a vision in pink as she was all-smiles as she was escorted round the vast gardens.
But, do you remember when Kate Middleton herself designed a gorgeous garden for the show back in 2019?
According to sources behind the scenes the Duchess of Cambridge was incredibly nervous as she waited for grandmother-in-law the Queen to arrive at the show to see her creation.

She even prepared for the Queen’s arrival by shoving some rogue twigs in her handbag so everything would be perfect - how adorable!
Kate’s “Back to Nature” garden was inspired by her childhood. It included a hand-built treehouse and a rope swing. It even touchingly featured forget-me-nots, the late Princess Diana’s favourite flower.
It also had a waterfall, a rustic den and a campfire, as well as tree stumps, stepping stones and a hollow log for children to play on.
The Queen seemed to love the garden and it also went down a treat with some smaller royals.
Princess Charlotte, Prince George and Prince Louis had so much fun during their first visit to Kate's Chelsea Flower Show garden that they went back for a second private visit.
They were allowed to play in a cordoned-off section of Kate's exhibit after begging their mum to return - we can’t say we blame them, it looked so much fun.
The princes and princess roamed around for about half an hour and also visited other gardens at the show before the public were let in at 8am, with some members of the public queuing for hours to wander round the gorgeous gardens.
Kate said her creation was intended to boost awareness about the physical and mental benefits of being among nature, which is more important now than ever, because with the rise in popularity of video games, less and less children opt to play outside.
The Duke was also spotted enjoying a go on the swing - well, age is just a number.
Prince George gave his verdict of the Back to Nature garden, and after his father asked him what he thought of it, a proud George awarded it a glowing score of "Twenty.”
The Duchess of Cambridge told the BBC that technology-obsessed youngsters were "missing out" and added that her children were dragged to play outside come "rain or shine.”
It was revealed that the Duchess was involved at every stage of the design - including the difficult gardening work. A real down to earth Duchess.
