24th Gold for Johnny Walkers, Guy Hands with Gemma Arterton, Scotts win Best Discovery Exhibit and other show highlights


Johnny Walkers (above) won a 24th consecutive Gold Medal for his display of Taylors daffodils, which means he has to come back next year to try for a 25th.  



Guy Hands and Gemma Arterton, who will be filming the new film about Vita Sackville-West in Kent this summer, attracted one of he biggest paparazzi crowds on the Burncoose Garden.  



Scotts Miracle-Gro won Best Discovery exhibit in The Great Pavillion



and in our opinion, purple was the dominant planting colour theme for Chelsea 2017.

See our complete Chelsea Press Day Gallery below.  How many stars did we manage to capture?  Answers on an e-mail to trevor.pfeiffer@tgcmc.co.uk, no prizes but we will announce the winner at the HTA National Plant Show!
