RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show 8 - 13 July 2014
David Domoney’s Insider Guide
The RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show is one of my favourite events. It’s a cross between a show and a festival that’s packed with spectacular show gardens and stunning floral exhibits.
David Domoney’s Insider Guide Welcome to my insider’s guide to the show – what to see and do, and how to make the most of your trip. I hope you have a great day out, and make sure you come and see me in the RHS Celebrity Theatre! Hampton Court is a fantastic summer gardening event. It might not be as famous as Chelsea, but it should be because it’s the biggest flower show in the world! The palace grounds make a stunning backdrop and the open space gives it a friendly and relaxed feel.
July is high-season for plants and everything looks at its best. And unlike at Chelsea, you can buy direct from the floral exhibits. I often see people leaving with armfuls of plants and flowers!
And there’s such a party atmosphere! The plants and the Pimm’s are equally popular, and the summer sunshine puts everyone in a good mood.
There is so much to see and do – it’s a great day out for all the family.

The Quiet Mark Treehouse and Garden by John Lewis
I’ve joined forces with Quiet Mark and John Lewis to build a treehouse and garden like you’ve never seen before. The garden is a tranquil sanctuary to escape from all the noise from the urban world. Trees to filter sounds and an insulated tree house to encourage a quiet haven. After Hampton Court Palace Flower Show the treehouse will be donated by Quiet Mark and John Lewis to The Chestnut Children’s Hospice in West Sussex. The hospice were unable to build their own treehouse because of budget constraints, and they are delighted to be involved with making such a gift to provide a special new place for the children and their families to be together.
