What a week it’s been. 💐 From welcoming wonderful guests to celebrating a Gold award at Chelsea Flower Show, every moment in our Container Garden has been a reminder of the passion, creativity and craftsmanship that continue to shape Whittard of Chelsea 140 years on.
This achievement feels especially meaningful as we celebrate our anniversary year, not only as a reflection of where we are today, but of the journey that brought us here. A legacy built on curiosity, innovation, and transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.
Inspired by our heritage and brought to life through incredible collaboration, this garden tells a story of the spirit that has carried Whittard through generations.
Thank you to everyone who has visited, supported, and shared this moment so far. And to the incredible teams who helped make this vision a reality, we’re endlessly grateful. We’ve loved sharing this experience with you. And if you’re heading to the show this week, come and say hello. ☕️

Our home, in full bloom 🌸
To celebrate the season, we invited Chelsea florist Charlie Hayward of to interpret three of our loose leaf teas through the language of flowers. The bouquet became a reflection of expressive flavour layers and was alive with detail.
Inspired by the artistry of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, where nature and craftsmanship exist in perfect harmony. Because the story of great tea begins long before the first pour.
We are so excited to be showing a garden at RHS Chelsea Flower Show this week. Pop by and meet the team!

As the days start to soften, so should your tea.
Earl Grey, poured over ice with fresh lemon, a touch of honey, and a hint of mint. Light, fragrant, and quietly refreshing. The kind of drink that makes spring feel like it’s finally arrived.
