The Australians have taken top prize at this year's RHS Chelsea with Trailfinders Australian Garden by Fleming's winning the coveted Best Show Garden and a Gold medal. If you're off to Chelsea this week, you'll love this innovative garden, designed by Phillip Johnson, which showcases native Australian plants, set within an urban setting, while demonstrating the possibilities of sustainable landscaping.

There are 15 Show Gardens this year at Chelsea, as well as the Artisan and Fresh Gardens. Make sure you visit The SeeAbility Garden (below) - it was certainly one of my favourites, along with Le Jardin de Yorkshire, in the Artisan section and Jack Dunkley's Juxtaposition. I shall be featuring more gardens each day this week while RHS Chelsea 2013 is in full flower.
