Chelsea Gold Medal Exhibit 2008

Once again we were delighted to be awarded a Gold Medal at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show for our exhibit of Early Summer flowering Clematis.
This was our second consecutive Gold Medal - a really big acheivement for us as few have ever acheived this for a display of Clematis.

In fact for exhibits of Clematis we believe there are only a handful that have ever been awarded a Gold Medal at Chelsea during the last 50 years.

On the North side we had a collection of Raymond Evison's introductions, including Rebecca which was the most popular new clematis by far for 2008.
