Young person's 'Chelsea'


On the back of the Chelsea Flower Show, garden designers of the future will showcasing their own 'mini' gardens during the half-term break (May 23-31) at RHS Wisley. A number of schools across all age ranges have created 1 metre by 1 metre gardens, many following the theme of growing vegetables. 'The environment' is also another major theme with gardens featuring bird feeders, recycled newspaper pots and even a bee 'cafe' and frog 'hotel'. Blue Peter presenter Chris Collins will be judging the competition. Chris was on hand at Chelsea earlier in the week - pictured (right) on the Centrepoint stand with James Sheehy (a student from the charity). Centrepoint provides opportunity to study horticulture at Capel Manor College for homeless young people
