British royal family news has uncovered that the Queen has marked an upcoming unique event by sending a message to some of the contestants that will be involved in the Chelsea Flower Show. The event is one of the most popular of the year, but this year it will be taking place virtually for the first time ever due to the outbreak of the coronavirus.
The Queen has used the occasion to send a message to those that will be involved in the event, while Her Majesty also admitted that her grandmother would have been delighted to see how popular gardening is in this modern era. The Queen’s grandmother first attended the Chelsea Flower Show in 1916.

The Queen admitted in her message that she wishes the best to all those that are involved in the event this year. She admitted that her grandmother would be delighted with how the popularity of gardening remains as popular in this age as it once was. The event this year will be one of the most unique in its over 100-year history.
It will also be a weird couple of days for the Queen as she typically attends the show in person. However, that will not be possible this year due to the outbreak of the coronavirus. Her Majesty is the patron of the event, and has also hailed its reputation as being on the favourite national pastimes in the calendar.

The decision to cancel the typical Chelsea Flower Show was the announcement that many expected. But, organisers quickly revealed that there would be a special event for 2020, with the Royal Horticultural Society revealing plans to have online talks throughout the same dates. It has been teased that there will be a variety of famous faces involved in the event.
The Chelsea Flower Show is another event that would have been wiped from the Queen’s schedule this year. It has already been revealed that another one of the Queen’s favourite days of the year has been affected by the pandemic, as Her Majesty will no longer be able to attend Royal Ascot as it will be taking place without fans in attendance this year.
