Not a single line about Francis Tophill in this article?! In #BBCChelsea she was presented as the main designer of the Curious Garden, with the three gentlemen as advisor, mentor or assistant. A case of 'not well-known enough'? #GardenersWorld #ChelseaFlowerShow

King Charles attends Chelsea Flower Show and meets David Beckham

King Charles and Queen Camilla attended the 2026 Chelsea Flower Show, enjoying the unique atmosphere of the event. For only the second time, the Royal Horticultural Society allowed garden gnomes, and the King was shown a display including a gnome in his likeness. He visited a cottage inspired by his Highgrove home, where he met Sir David Beckham and TV gardener Alan Titchmarsh. Together, they collaborated on the Curious Garden, a whimsical space filled with gnomes, artwork, plants, honey jars, and even vodka. Notable figures such as Joanna Lumley, Bill Bailey, and Sir Brian May also attended the event. The show featured creative high-concept gardens, including a carved wooden figure of Mother Nature by the Campaign to Protect Rural England, driftwood sculptures by James Doran-Wood, and a cultural display by Tate Britain with a Barbara Hepworth sculpture. The Eden Project presented a sustainable 'Bring Me Sunshine' garden to be relocated to Morecambe. The show combined spectacle with humour, exemplified by Lovehoney's 'Aphrodite's Hothouse' display, which offered a tongue-in-cheek take on the eroticism of flowers. The Chelsea Flower Show attracted visitors eager to experience both the artistry and grandeur of the gardens, alongside moments of light-hearted amusement.
