Flower Show Inspiration & DAB Easy Listening

Did you follow the BBC’s coverage of the RHS Chatsworth Flower Show at the weekend? We were glued to the TV and radio, amazed at the beauty of the displays, the great advice, the talent of the designers and the event in general. Chatsworth House in the Peak District, which shares a rich horticultural tradition with the RHS spanning 190 years, hosts the show on a 21 hectare site big enough to fill 26 football pitches. That’s a lot of flowers!

If you missed the coverage or would love to see an RHS flower show in the flesh, the RHS Hampton Court Flower Show is happening just outside London, 2nd – 8th July, or you could catch the RHS Tatton Park Flower Show near Manchester, 18th – 22nd July. The shows always inspire us to get out into the garden and do some tidying, planting or pottering, all with our trusty DAB radio playing summer tunes or a bit of Gardener’s Question Time or Flower Show highlights. Here are our favourite DAB radios, just the thing to while away the hours in a lovely flower garden this summer.
