From surprise launches to celebrity appearances, this year’s Chelsea Flower Show has been full of excitement. As the show comes to a close, we wanted to take a moment to look back at this year’s highlights.

TWO NEW ROSE RELEASES

While our Rosarians were busy setting up this year’s stand, we announced the launch of our beautiful Kate Moss rose, a beautiful yellow-cream shrub rose that is available to pre-order for this winter as a bare root.

Then just when everyone thought we had announced our new releases for this year, we launched the BBC ‘The One Show 20th Rose’ on press day with help from the lovely Alex Jones and Ronan Kemp.

OUR 31ST GOLD MEDAL

We are delighted to have been awarded our 31st Gold Medal at this year’s show, continuing our long-standing success at the world’s most celebrated horticultural event. The achievement marks another milestone for us, with Peter Beales Roses continuing to hold more RHS Chelsea Flower Show Gold Medals than any other rose exhibitor still showing at the event.

LOTS OF CELEBRITY APPEARANCES

From world-renowned fashion designer Sir Paul Smith to Blue Peter legend Anthea Turner to Bridgerton star Adjoa Andoh, we had a wonderful time chatting with a range of famous faces and showing them around this year’s display.

OUR ROSARIANS WERE ON TV

This year, we have been lucky enough to have been featured in TV coverage throughout the Chelsea Flower Show and our new rose was even on The One Show. This has been a wonderful opportunity for us and we have loved chatting to customers about the show.

Didn’t see us on TV? Don’t panic, you can watch the coverage back on BBC iPlayer.

A HUGE THANK YOU

Everything we have achieved at this year’s show wouldn’t have been possible without all the hard work from the Peter Beales Roses team. From the Rosarians putting the stand together to our dedicated breeding team who nurture the roses throughout the year to our brilliant garden centre team who keep everything ticking over at our site in Norfolk, this year’s show wouldn’t have been possible without our amazing team, so we want to say a huge thank you to them all.
