Chelsea plants
'The Eden Project: Bring Me Sunshine Garden' is inspired by the dramatic coastal landscapes, rich seaside heritage and resilient communities of Morecambe Bay. Its soft coastal-inspired planting champions productive and sustainable gardening techniques, and has been designed to thrive in Morecambe's wild, salty landscape.
Explore the full plant list of our 2026 RHS Chelsea Flower Show garden below.
This garden has been made possible thanks to the generous match-funding from the grant-making charity Project Giving Back.
