The Ideal Homes show at Earls Court runs until 27 March 2011 and Dermot Gavin is the ambassador for Ideal Gardens this year.

‘Show Gardens will be outside of Earls Court in their ‘natural’ habitat for the first time ever! Located just outside the main entrance to Earls Court, you won’t be able to miss the stunning garden displays when you arrive. The Show Gardens this year form a competition that has encouraged the very best horticultural students from around the country’.
