As horticultural teams meticulously prepare for next week's Chelsea Flower Show, the stunning garden displays are increasingly designed with a lasting legacy in mind, destined for life beyond the event.
The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) has actively championed this sustainable approach, encouraging designers to ensure their creations find new homes. Since 2016, the RHS has relocated its own feature gardens, notably sending Monty Don's "dog garden" to Battersea Dogs and Cats Home last year.
