Hide AdHer Chelsea Flower Show mug celebrates all that is great about the iconic event.
It features a couple of wheelbarrows parked in front of Sophie’s favourite alliums, foxgloves and peonies with some bee hives hiding in the undergrowth.
Sophie said: “With plenty of butterflies, dragonflies, bees and the odd parakeet flying around a blue sky it sets a perfect quintessentially English scene.
“It even features a couple of Chelsea pensioners and see if you can spot the hedgehogs.”
