They say a photo is worth a thousand words. For Blooms of Bressingham, which once again took away gold medal honours at the 2001 Chelsea Flower Show, it promotes the company and the garden, and offers a look at what was missed by those who did not experience the garden in person.

     Taking a very nostalgic look at Alan Bloom’s first greenhouse, the garden utilized 4,000 perennials, hand-picked out of the 10,000 grown in Blooms greenhouses. Blooms of Bressingham is one of the few growers in the U.K. to introduce a host of new plants at Chelsea. For a detailed look at how Blooms won the Chelsea Gold, please refer to page 26 of the July/August issue of Landscape Trades.
