Think the Welcome to Yorkshire canal is impressive.

Anyone going?

We’ve given up because of the crowds.

Would love to go as its on my list! Trying chats worth this year and looking forward to it although smaller will suit us couple of hours drive from us. Love Chelsea and watch it every year like you ellevallin strawberries and cream on sofa!

For anyone that’s interested; the RHS website has in-depth photos and explanations of each of the show gardens and the awards they achieved.

I’d like to go for the atmosphere, but suspect, like other posters, that I wouldn’t see very much being not very tall. I love watching it on the tv, though.
I agree with others, the gardens do seem much better this year with more plants and less structures. I thought they tended to over dominate a bit last year.

I went on Saturday, it was lovely. I saw Monty's head in the Press standsmile Lots of people, but so polite if you bump into someone or they you. Being a Yorkshire girl I loved the Yorkshire garden. It is a lovely experience.
