The Chelsea Flower Show is the highlight of the British gardening calendar and perhaps the most famous horticultural event on the planet, visited by over 150,000 people annually. For more than a century, its prestigious plots were only available to the professionals - the elite of the gardening world. Now, for the first time ever, Chelsea's doors are open to just one, truly outstanding amateur. The Great Chelsea Garden Challenge follows six of the country's most promising non-professional garden designers as they compete to win this prestigious prize, and possibly launch new careers in the garden design arena. Whether they're planning a stunning formal courtyard or a fantastical take on the burnt out Australian outback, the contestants must pull out all the stops to win over the demanding judges and claim the most acclaimed prize in amateur gardening.
