Celebrating LCGD Graduates excelling at the 2025 RHS Chelsea Flower Show

The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is the UK’s premier garden event bringing together all the different strands of our industry together from garden and landscape design to nurseries, landscapers, parks and gardens, floristry and more.

LCGD is an integral part of the show and we have great links to all the people making UK horticulture work for the country. This year it feels like we’ve spread the love even further with our graduates, students and tutors being involved across a whole host of different platforms so we thought we’d show you how well they have done. Congratulations to everyone involved.

Congratulations also to all the graduates who have been involved in nursery exhibits including Jake Sutcliffe for Newby Hall Garden, their own tradestands and those who have helped the landscapers and designers this year.

Our own stand is very busy this year with enquiries about all our courses especially our new Plantsmanship course starting in September 2025. If you are coming to the show over the next few days call by and say hello. We are on Eastern Avenue, stand 431.

Don’t forget we’re also represented at other shows coming up including the Belvoir Castle Flower & Garden Show, RHS Wentworth and RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festivals.
