The Houseplant Studios at RHS Chelsea, proudly sponsored by Malvern Garden Buildings, contain a plethora of inspiration for curating an indoor sanctuary filled with an array of beautiful plants. Inspired by a space in a home solely dedicated to houseplants, the
terrariROOM plants will be displayed in ways that make their care simple and resembles an enterable terrarium. Grow lights will demonstrate how houseplants don’t have to be placed next to a window to thrive.
The Babylon Beats exhibit draws inspiration from The Hanging Gardens of Babylon. An ancient wonder of the world and an early documented structure where plants were displayed ornamentally, the exhibit references ancient architecture and forms through a retro-futuristic and transcendent filter and alternating structures and levels.
Creating a multi-sensory home sanctuary,
The Sensory Retreat features plants that play an active role in shaping mood, reducing stress, and enhancing wellbeing. It showcases how a small, plant-filled corner of a home can become a peaceful, restorative escape for relaxation, work, or social connection.
The Roots of Wellbeing exhibit creates an illusion of a living wall through using well-established hanging potted plants. Trailing plants in rows dangling from the ceiling curate an immersive experience for visitors.
This year marks the first time at RHS Malvern where Indoor Plant Gardens will be RHS-judged. Held in the Festival of Houseplants, this brand-new feature leads the way in recognising the versatility of indoor plants and the accessible and affordable ways we can incorporate them into our lives.
RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival will feature the brand-new Houseplant Marquee as a dedicated area for houseplant growers. The space will exhibit a range of indoor plants as well as terrarium workshops and experts on hand to speak about caring for these plants.
Houseplant exhibits are all designed and curated by houseplant specialists. For more information on RHS Shows including tickets and timings, visit
