Trend Flash™ Chelsea Garden Show

May 27, 2010 By Trend Staff -

For the first time, The Trend Curve will make a full trend report available from this important show, complete with bullet-point details and over 100 images. You’ll learn about floral and garden colors, types, materials and themes that you can expect to see in gardens and outdoor-living venues for the next two years.

Noteworthy in Chelsea:

COLOR
– Purple and Lavender had trend status
– Blue began to build, especially Turquoise, the hot color of the show
– Pink was present in every shade
– Blue casts made Reds stand out
– Orange appeared in splashes
– White was key, not only for flowers, but also for hard surfaces

FORMAT
– Formality took a step back
– Released from structure, planting styles promoted the natural shape of plants grown amongst each other
– Romantic cottage gardens demanded more attention
– Meadows encouraged wildlife as they took hold in Chelsea
– Meandering garden lines were punctuated with straight structures

IN THE GARDEN
– Delphinium spires and macanopsis reinforced the Blue story
– Sweet peas in slightly faded shades made a Victorian statement
– Huge balls of buxus appeared to soften hard surfaces
– Overblown Pink roses and peonies were in abundance
– Willow, the top choice for garden supports, shifted to more artistic values
