BALI celebrate 40 year anniversary at Chelsea

This year is a big year for Landscaping in the UK. Not only have we seen the Olympic Park being created, which is one of the biggest horticultural projects ever undertaken in the UK but  we are also celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Landscapers Trade Association (BALI).

To mark this occasion BALI organised to an extra special trade stand this year at The Chelsea Flower Show, which Transform were asked to help construct and also man during the show.

The Stand and garden was designed by Jill Crooks, the aim was to gain public awareness and to educate visitors.  At the back of the stand were displayed photos of BALI members who have built gold winning gardens at Chelsea.

Charles Blumlein and Craig Tate-Grimes (pictured below) helped in the build up to the show. Charles said afterwards " the build up of the show ground is a totally different place with construction vehicles buzzing about and everyone in hi-vis safety vests. There is a really good atmosphere and great camaraderie".
