Chelsea exhibit building begins next week

The year’s Chelsea exhibit will showcase orchids from around the world displayed in a naturalistic setting. British native species will be highlighted using large-scale images on the rear wall of the display and information panels at the front will introduce visitors to a variety of our home-grown beauties and their exotic relations. 

We are pleased to welcome sponsorship from Albourne Partners Ltd, an independent advisory firm ‎headquartered in the UK with expertise across hedge funds, private equity, real assets and real estate.

Dactylorhiza fuchsii is one of our British native Marsh Orchids and readily colonises newly exposed ground; it can be a valuable indicator of the health of our environment. In contrast, Platanthera chlorantha, Britain’s Greater Butterfly Orchid, can be shy to flower and only bloom when conditions are perfect.
