    Absolutely brilliant! So many lovely displays - I loved the Sticks 'N' Sushi Samurai display. And that Tiffany' necklace is wonderful, especially when one remembers that it's made entirely from flowers. The Ivy's Wind in the Willows display is quite beautiful with all that wisteria, though sans all those annoying selfie-takers. You simply must return for the Christmas display. The flower popcorn from that innovative popcorn display looks like cotton blooms. The Lion King display is certainly a crowd please; however, my favourite is the Cheshire Cat. Thanks for sharing.

      I know so many great ones and how dare those people take selfies out side the Ivy :) Yes I've put it on my list for places to cover this Christmas - not long now :)

      I agree about the generation of selfies. I see that the popcorn is cotton stalks of cotton blooms. Here in the US, it is a MAJOR source of farming. There is a cotton farm just one fourth mile down from my neighborhood. When they harvest it, I have to dust my house every day. LOL

    Beautiful surprise!!! A spectacular annual event!! Chelsea in Bloom takes the cake! Every exhibit was absolutely gorgeous and top drawer!! The film theme was fabulous - although it was nice that a few proprietors featured other themes such as the coronation and such. I am not good at movie guesses at all so this was a good trivia for me. I only knew the older movies such as Marry Poppins and some others. But they ALL did a wonderful job with their floral artwork. The Willy Chocolate Factory was great with the perfect lines and coloring. The second exhibit store front and others like it are what I just love - like a wild English flower garden in the country. LOVE IT. So the deep dark red roses around the white porcelain bath tub is one of my favorites. On Kings road, the first is beautiful with the English garden flowers type if exhibit. I absolutely LOVE the bicycles full of flowers - ooooooo!! The black horse is beautiful! Sorry, I did not catch the story behind the horse. LOL Love the Mary Poppins display. Her in dark blue as a shadow and the Merry-go-Round horse. For Jigsaw display...."twidilybits"!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 love that phrase! I love the soft mossy flowers around the corner of Jigsaw. I adore the Wind in the Willows! That one is one of my favorites - well done!! Looks better than a Disney display. Yes, the popcorn display at 5:06 is the best. What a grand idea with using stalks of cotton stems for the popcorn. Brilliant. I just love the Astrid display where the lady sits to have a pic! Beautiful. I half dont blame her. 🤣🤣Little Mermaid was brilliant against the yellow building wall. I love the flower pedals of the lovely shoes and birthday cake. The pink MZ Skin with the pink drama masks was one of my favs as well!! Gorgeous. Love the Cheshire Cat display. And the Wizard of Oz was gorgeous with the tunnel of poppies. Oh my goodness - the Jurastic Park display with the T-Rex swallowing a tourist!! I LOVED that!!! Fabulous. As an American I can say a word to the tacky American tourists - dont be tacky!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I loved the make-up vanity with the lovely pink roses. And the display next to it looked beautiful with the tropical look. Cartier's white roses were beautiful and Tiffany's beautiful necklace was superb!! It is very difficult to say that one was my favorite. So I guess I would say the Wind and the Willow display is my favorite for the artistic design and colors and flowers and the display animals and such. Beautiful and fun. A superb video and you captured everything so beautifully! Blessings.

      So glad you liked them and such a variety all over the place - really fun collection and so pleased I filmed so quickly as a number of places I didn't film the flowers were not doing well! The smell outside the shops was incredible and yes so m any were just incredible designs :)

    I finally have time to watch this. My favorite was The Ivy that was just stunning. I liked the Lion 🦁 King, Tiffany's was gorgeous 😍, and I did like Cartier as well. It was just so nice to see all of the shops participating even with small displays. The Cheshire cat was so well done. Didn't realize that was supposed to be Freddie Mercury until you said then I could see it. I would just stand there all day listening to the music 🎶🎵. Was the rose 🌹bath supposed to be American Beauty ? Never saw the film but seemed to remember the poster. Liked the Bafta and the Oscar. When I first glanced at the title I thought you were in the actual show and was impressed 😳. It's going to look so bare after all the 💐🌹🌸🏵🌼 get taken down. I can't imagine what the smell was like, just amazing. Like you said though how are all the displays going to last all those days. I hope they don't throw okay flowers out but leave them for the public to take, that would be so sad.

      I don't know but not looking at the images from the film it could well be American Beauty. I did check out the prices of the show and they we £115 a ticket so stuck to the free street show and so glad I did :) Yes it was a lovely touch of the shop to be playing Queen all day long with the display outside and great view and sound together. It is going to look very bare when they go! Thnaks as always Lesley :)

    First of all - wonderful event! The "ascot" display was perhaps a loose ode to "My Fair Lady." (I say loose because the whole display pretty lacking). Loved the popcorn (all of them), the vibrantly blue Mary Poppins, the Tiffany necklace - dynamite, and the "lion King" display - absolutely lovely. They didn't do this in the late '80's when I lived there, Steve. I wish they had. Truly wonderful. Thanks so much for sharing it.

      Karen, so pleased you've seen this as I always think of you when going to Chelsea and knew you'd love it. Found some lovely side streets as well off the Kings Road! :)

      @London Visited oh my gosh Steve, yes I hadn't thought about that! I think that the smell after several warm days & nights will not be pleasant either. Who will clean up that soggy rotten smelly mess I wonder?
