The big plant sell-off at The

on the Saturday and lasts until 5.30pm when all
visitors must leave the showground. During this
time many of the exhibitors sell off display plants
and products. The sell-off period is usually very
busy, so it pays to be wise to the fact before
it starts. Make notes of any plants you want to
buy and remember the relevant stand numbers -
and a quick route to them. Some exhibitors at
the Chelsea flower show 2009 will reserve plants
for you and it is always worth asking. Then remember
to be at those stands before the sell-off starts.

are expected attend the Chelsea flower show 2009.
This is a capped figure and represents full capacity
