Many congratulations to The Real Flower Company on celebrating their 20th year anniversary with a Silver-Gilt Medal at this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show! Here’s founder Rosebie Morton at a photocall on Press Day on Monday with three lovely lady Chelsea Pensioners.
It’s the first time that Rosebie’s exhibited in the Great Pavilion. And her and her team had created a gorgeous tablescape featuring their scented garden roses, herbs and foliage.
It was so lovely to see Liz Earle MBE, who was also taking part in the photocall.
This lady seems totally lost in thought, doesn’t she…?
When I returned to the exhibit later that afternoon, Rosebie was being interviewed by Mary Berry for the BBC coverage of the show. And here’s a link to the episode on iPlayer, where the piece starts at 19 mins 20 seconds in.
Here’s the ivory ‘Mary Berry’ rose on the right below…
…and here’s Rosebie and the Chelsea Pensioners, joined with Daisy Brooks (left) and Jo Shapiro (right) from The Real Flower Company team.

P.S. Here are links to two other Chelsea blog posts, which went live today, just in case you missed them: June in March and Festoon.
