The hard work pays offBuild site 2 Photograph

Chelsea has not only been a busy time for designer Sarah Eberle, but also for the garden’s sponsors, Bradstone.

Bradstone had a team helping with the build in the three weeks leading up to the Show, then the marketers moved in during the Show for the week to make sure that guests were welcomed and to deal with enquiries from the public and media.

They said:  "The week got off to a great start for us when we heard we had not only picked up a gold medal, but also best in show!  We were all absolutely thrilled and really pleased for Sarah.

"So many months of planning and hard work go into Chelsea.  So it has been pretty overwhelming to get such a brilliant outcome and the resulting interest from the public and media that has meant that we have all been rushed off our feet even more than usual. 

“The week seems to have been a flurry of journalist interviews and television crews which has certainly added to the sense of excitement.  While it is good to relax again after all the hard work, we are always sad when the last day of the Show comes to a close – something I think we have all felt more than ever this year.

"Nonetheless, I think we would all agree that it was great to finally go home and put our feet up, especially knowing that the garden was such a huge success.”
