It's Chelsea.....and it's Chelsea v Man United!


It's the Chelsea Flower Show once again and I'm quite happy to watch this spectacular horticultural showpiece from my armchair. I've been there once and it was nice but it's crowded, small and I had the most appalling allergy problem with the London pollution (it was very windy). I'd much rather go to Malvern. So here I am the armchair gardener and I just want every new plant they mention. I've even found a new supplier of Heuchera's and they have one called Rave On which I must buy as Harvey's first mating was with Chartan Raving Beauty - known as Rave to her friends!! Thank god for the Internet - I can even order plants online :)

....and the other reason Chelsea is in the news? Chelsea were beaten by Manchester United in the UEFA cup final in Moscow. Penalty shoot out 6-5 - what a waste but there again serves 'em right for sacking Jose Mourinho!!
