Hide AdDavid said: “Following our success at RHS Hampton Court, RHS Tatton Park and BBC Gardeners World, it’s absolutely brilliant to have achieved a gold at the prestigious Chelsea RHS show.
"As soon as the show is over, I need to start the preparation for next year’s display - which will have to be absolutely spectacular.“
Neil said: “This is our first ever appearance at Chelsea and unfortunately will be our last time as we are retiring.
"It’s the fourth time we have worked with David on a display and it’s been an absolute pleasure. We are extremely proud to be retiring in a blaze of RHS Chelsea gold glory.”
