We’re so excited to return to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show from Monday 19 to Saturday 24 May 2025, and even more thrilled to once again be the official charity partner of Belgravia in Bloom that runs from the Monday 19 May to Monday 26 May 2025.
Both events celebrate the joy and creativity of gardens, so they’re the perfect places to share more about what Horatio’s Garden does, meet supporters old and new, and invite people to explore the power of plants and green spaces.
RHS Chelsea Flower Show
We’re thrilled to be back at RHS Chelsea Flower Show in our usual spot on Cross Way (CW312), this year in collaboration with Country Living magazine.
Our beautiful stand, designed by our very own Horatio’s Garden Midlands designer Bunny Guinness, features a vaulted sculptural wire arch filled with stunning seasonal planting. The design brings the essence of our gardens to life, with wildflower-inspired artwork by textile artist Katy McIntyre-Brown surrounding the space. Step beneath the floral bower for the perfect photo moment, it’s your chance to feel like a Country Living cover star!
Come and meet the Country Living and Horatio’s Garden teams to learn more about our work in NHS spinal injury centres across the UK. You can also find out how to support the charity by becoming a Friend. If you sign up to give £10 or more a month, you’ll receive a special Chelsea goodie bag including a limited edition Country Living x Horatio’s Garden tote bag, a copy of Country Living, an exclusive Horatio’s Garden Emma Bridgewater mug, and Mr Fothergill’s seeds.
Of course, there’s also the chance to browse our carefully curated shop, filled with beautiful gifts and homeware. This year’s collection includes:
- Emma Bridgewater Apple Blossom mugs, aprons, tea towels and oven gloves
- Allium ceramics
- Canvas and kit bags
- Lavender bags
- Garden extras like plant labels, twine stands and notelets
The full range is also available to order online here.
Belgravia in Bloom
- Our floral installation, called The Everlasting Garden – A Year in Bloom is created by the brilliant RHS award-winning designers Hazel Gardiner and Polly Wilkinson (our designer for Horatio’s Garden North). Our Belgravia in Bloom installation will be on display in Newson’s Yard on the Pimlico Road throughout the festival. Inspired by nature’s rhythm, it’s a walk-through, multi-sensory celebration of spring, summer, autumn and winter, all flowing into one another. The space includes vibrant seasonal plants, a central wooden bench for pausing and reflecting, and a floral arch combining fresh and dried elements. Like all our gardens, the display is designed to be beautiful, welcoming, and inclusive – somewhere to stop and take a breath.
- Belgravia in Bloom 2025 runs from 19–26 May and this year’s theme is ‘Through the Seasons’. Expect bold, imaginative floral displays all around the neighbourhood, with shops and local spots transformed for the week. It’s completely free to explore, and the nearest tube stations are Victoria, Knightsbridge and Sloane Square – just follow the flowers!
This July, we’re also celebrating our Country Living partnership with a special panel discussion at the Royal Geographical Society (RGS). ‘How to design a garden to suit you’ will feature expert insights from James Alexander-Sinclair, Joe Swift, and Polly Wilkinson, hosted by Rachel de Thame.

In 2023, Horatio’s Garden was awarded both a gold medal and Best in Show for Horatio’s Garden Chelsea, the first Main Avenue garden designed with accessibility at its heart, by Harris Bugg Studio and supported by Project Giving Back. Two years later, the garden has been enlarged to eight times the size to become Horatio’s Garden Sheffield & East which has just opened at the Princess Royal Spinal Cord Injuries Centre. More information about the garden, and our time at RHS Chelsea 2023, can be found here.
