RHS Chelsea Flower Show Floral Design Highlights

This year's RHS Chelsea Flower Show included some incredible and unusual floral designs.

It was also the first year of RHS Chelsea when floral foam was banned, which meant many florists experimented with new ways to design their floral arrangements. Shane Connolly's Environmental Floristry course teaches how to create more sustainable floral designs.

This year's themes were British Flowers, Preservation, Pollination and the Beauty of Nature.

Here's just a few of our floral design and flower highlights from this year:

Aristaeus' Apiary - Flowers of Elegance

Tracy Rowbottom Designs: On Reflection
