A difference from the equivalent displays at Chelsea Flower Show is that exhibitors sell plants, bulbs and seeds from the stands and have storage areas outside to keep extra stock. I think this is the stand of Hardy's Cottage Garden Plants - we bought some hybrid foxglove seeds from them, and a cactus dahlia plant at another stand. We found an advantage of visiting this flower show is that we managed to obtain plants etc from specialised growers that we have failed to find at garden centres.
