      Summer has arrived again, the days are long, and people are all enjoying their ice-creams in their deck chairs at RHS Malvern Spring Festival.

      This year, some familiar faces returned to wow the crowd. Ian McBain was back again, this time he designed a garden which had a king size bed in it! Lu Wenjuan & Yun Sunmi were also back, with their Garden of the Wind, as was Emily Crowley-Wroe with the Greening Maindee garden.

      Set in the Three Counties Showground, the show gardens at the Malvern flower festival were incredible again. A lot of creative freedom allowed to designers of all experiences.

      Below are the show gardens to admire, according to the designer who created it. Light is so important for photography, and so I was up at 6am, and stayed until 9:30pm. I always feel humbled being a garden photographer at a flower show when everyone else has gone home. I can really admire the gardens, and to concentrate on my work.
