The RHS had a fantastic area called Home Grown, where volunteers and Garden experts were on hand to discuss all aspects of growing your own from fields of sunflowers to the perfect market garden, polytunnels, orchards with ducks and chickens and so much more. This was massively popular and there were times when one could hardly turn round for the number of enthusiastic visitors.
On the other side of the Long Water we found the Floral Marquee. This year it is one long structure - think I heard it was the longest marquee ever in Europe but can't find any confirmation of this. There were 95 exhibitors listed in the area who put on the most stunning displays including about ten featuring the "Summer Picnic" theme. (A lot of teddy bears starred here.)
There was also a fabulous display of fruit, flowers, veggies and plants all mixed together as well as beautiful specialist single species displays.
And we mustn't forget the Midsummer's Rose Festival and Plant Heritage Marquee that was very crowded later in the day when I got the chance to visit.
