Virtual RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2021

Last Updated on December 21, 2023 by Suttons Horticultural Team

Virtual RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2021 is soon to be here and Suttons brings you inspirational ‘Plant of the Year’ award nominees, past winners and ones to watch!

Since 1913, the RHS Chelsea Flower Show has been held at London’s Royal Hospital Chelsea every year. This prestigious event is attended by top horticultural professionals, the largest and best horticultural companies, and avid gardening enthusiasts.

This year, the RHS Chelsea Flower Show has been moved to September for the first time in its 108-year history. But don’t despair! RHS Virtual Chelsea Flower Show 2021, 17-21 May, is returning in the special gardening month of May.
 
To celebrate, Suttons brings you our RHS Chelsea 2021 ‘Plant of the Year’ nominees – fabulous flowers and vivacious veg to inspire you!

 Suttons is proud to have close ties to RHS Chelsea and has won ‘Plant of the Year’ in 2017 and 2019. Although this year’s competition will take place in September, you can get ahead of the game and buy plants early – before everyone else – and appreciate them this summer!

Introducing our RHS Chelsea Flower Show Plant of the Year 2021 nominees – show-stopping, high-performing and breeding breakthrough varieties to inspire you!

The most variegated perennial on the market!

Virtual RHS Chelsea Flower Show nominee - Suttons Polemonium Golden Feathers

Polemonium Plant – Golden Feathers

The bright golden variegation on this brand-new perennial makes it a real show-stopper. The broad golden edge to each leaf is what helps to make this plant unique and stand out in the garden all season – even when not in flower. The lavender or lilac-coloured flowers are set off wonderfully by the
foliage.

One of the best new shrubs on the market!

Virtual RHS Chelsea Flower Show nominee - Suttons Cercis Eternal Flame Shrub 3 Litre

Cercis canadensis Plant – ‘Eternal Flame’®

This is a real winner and in our opinion is the best Cercis on the market. Its main benefit, which is completely unique, is the stunning foliage that emerges as bright glossy red and when it fades it still remains a lovely burnt orange and then to yellow.

Virtual RHS Chelsea Flower Show nominee

Cercis canadensis ‘Eternal Flame’® has been introduced to the 2021 market through an exciting collaboration between Hillier and Suttons. This joint venture will ensure that this wonderful new variety is made available to the widest range of gardeners via multiple sales channels.
