Spring stars such as alliums and foxgloves rubbed shoulders with long-blooming plants such as geums and Knautia macedonica. A vibrant habitat brimming with nectar- and pollen-rich plantsįeaturing a bee wing silhouette as the centrepiece, the garden was created by leading designer Joe Swift, becoming a standout environmentally-themed attraction at the show. Throughout the month of May, the RHS and BBC Studios #OurGreenPlanet empowered people with practical ideas on how everyone can help bees and other pollinators thrive, culminating in the BBC Studios Our Green Planet & RHS Bee Garden at RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2022 (24 – 28 May).
