Fleming's at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show
For eight of the past nine years Fleming’s Nurseries have presented Australian Show Gardens at the Chelsea Flower Show.
We believe that this has generated enormous positive media attention for the Australian Horticultural Industry on the world stage, and particularly within Australia, while at the same time adding a unique element to the Chelsea Flower show itself.
The following links will take you to past and present websites of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show entries that have been submitted by Fleming's and their partners over the years.
