A new video featuring Sir David Beckham was released by the King’s Foundation as part of preparations for the 2026 Chelsea Flower Show.
“Welcome to the next chapter of my gardening journey, I’m so excited to share with you that I will be helping to create the RHS and King’s Foundation Curious Garden for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2026,” Beckham says in the video posted on the social media accounts of the King’s Foundation, for which the former footballer is an ambassador.
The video, which also features some experts, was shared with a statement saying: “We are delighted to announce that the RHS and the King’s Foundation are creating a garden at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show (19 May – 23 May 2026) to encourage the nation to become curious about gardening and explore the vital contribution plants make to the health of people, places and planet.”
The RHS and The King’s Foundation Curious Garden will be designed by gardener and TV presenter Frances Tophill, her first garden at RHS Chelsea.
“To encourage millions of other new gardeners to be curious in their own gardens, King’s Foundation Ambassador Sir Davidbeckham and RHS and King’s Foundation Ambassador Alantitch Marshcbe will join Frances on her journey to create the garden.”
“The RHS and the King’s Fond Curious Garden will be full of domestic ideas for people to grow more plants and create beautiful pockets of nature – be it on a windowsill, in a container garden or in a private garden space.”
“After the show, the garden will be repurposed for young adults and designed to bring nature to urban settings to be announced in 2026. Watch this space.”
