who's going to gardeners world live and what do you intend to buy?
also why do's this event not get the same amount of coverage as the chelsea event?
I haven't been to GW Live for the past couple of years; it was ruined when they combined it with other shows in my opinion. Used to love it, and love seeing all the stuff from the nurseries and experts
I'll be there on the Saturday. I'd better not buy any plants, still got one or two from Malvern to plant!
Only one or two Crouchee? Sounds like you definitely need some more.
I totally agree with GardenBabe that the show was ruined by combining with other shows. You're trying to get to the plants and people with frying pans are in the way!
As for the other comment re Chelsea. Chelsea is an RHS show whereas Gardener's World is Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú and there is a world of difference between the two. If you can't see that then I can't explain it either. I am just so grateful to the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú for covering Chelsea so well. I know a lot gets repeated but then it probably would cost more to film more. Years ago there was nothing except for maybe a short piece on the News programme.
GWL Is similar to Malvern, in as much as the RHS have a marquee there, but another company (GWL is Haymarket, Malvern is 3 counties) control everything else.
As for TV coverage; there aren't enough show gardens to fill 23 hours of TV (or however much was shown of Chelsea!)
And yes; i'm going. to display.

Finally going to GW live this year. We can't wait. Going to see Toby in the celebrity tent.
I think he is a really good replacement for Monty and the GW format now I feel is great. I love the 30 min fix.
