A chain of art galleries based in Redruth has made its mark on the Royal Horticultural Society Chelsea Flower Show 2016.

Whistlefish, which has galleries across Cornwall and Devon, made its return to the world’s most prestigious flower festival, where judges from the RHS awarded their trade stand four gold stars for retail display excellence.

Lyn Thompson, director and founder of Whistlefish, said: “This is the ninth year we have attended Chelsea Flower Show, and we’ve won an award each time.

She continued: “2015 and 2016 saw us receive one of the highest certificates for presentation, so it’s fantastic to know that we are continuing to impress the judges.”

Whistlefish is now preparing for the RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, which will be held from July 5 to 10.
