Chelsea was once again bathed in sunshine and it was good to see the Great Pavilion being guarded by a watchful dragon.
Today saw us hang four beautiful images of British native orchids taken by past President of the Society, Henry Oakeley, along the back wall of our display.
A tree of Phalaenopsis Snow Cloud and Miltonia spectabilis is beginning to take shape on the right hand side, along with an asymetric mountain complete with cliff and ravines in the centre.
The build team worked hard despite various hiccoughs today and, amongst other jobs, new lights have been wired up and 100 ferns have been watered. Once again we have spread ourselves all over the place and our camp is beginning to sprawl around the pavilion!
