Oh, look, it's little old me and a bunch of us volunteers at @The_RHS #RHSChelsea

[The RHS @The_RHS]

Thank you to all our #RHSVolunteers at #RHSChelsea helping visitors around the showground this week!

We have had 186 people volunteer with us and they're here to help in our shops, our membership stands, in the Great Pavilion, on our RHS Gardens and in our RHS Experience area.

Only at @The_RHS #ChelseaFlowerShow can you find @crystalwillseeu DJing with two dancing glitter balls. And this was 10am on a Monday, can't think what the rest of the week will look like!

First time I've grown Briza maxima and I'm loving how intricate it looks when closely inspected. Like little jeweled scarabs out of a Pharaoh's tomb. #briza #brizamaxima #quakinggrass #ornamentalgrass #londongardenadvice #horticulture #gardenphotography #gardentips #gardening

Some studio 'behind the scenes' as the AMPG team model a new project in Vectorworks before generating photo realistic renders.
It allows us to really explore the intricacies of a sites physical form.
Garden design really isn't all about the plants!

@timleunig Many Clematis can be a bit "too" successful. But nothing that a bit of radical pruning cannot fix. Your other choices for #winterflowers are great too, especially if you add scent to its features: Viburnum, Sarcococca...

[London Garden Advice @ldngardenadvice]

Who said you cannot have flowers in winter? This is Clematis cirrhosa var. purpurascens 'Freckles', and in my garden it grows over an arch for me to look up into the nodding flowers.

It's time to prune deciduous grasses, but don't these Miscanthus sinensis 'Malepartus' look glorious in the snow?

Some plants' seasons extend further than we think. Seed heads have an architectural quality in this Berkheya purpurea in the Horniman Museum's prairie gardens.

Autumn heralds the winter times coming, but don't let that stop you enjoying this spectacular colours. The main tree in there is a Parrotia persica, the Persian ironwood. #parrotiapersica #ironwood #redleaves #autumn #autumncolours #fall #deciduoustree #gardenphotography #garden
