Chelsea Flower Show 2012, as it happened Check out the Artisan gardens here. 16:00 Yachtswoman Dame Ellen MacArthur has been driving around the site in a tiny electric car, a Renault Twizy. She said of the show: "What surprises me is the variety. I find myself asking engineering questions about how they make some of the things. I'm not a flower gardener but I do like growing things. 15:37 Joining the wrinkly rockers brigade is an altogether more fragrant Jerry Hall, enjoying herself at the Thai exhibit: 15:20 One of the categories in the Chelsea Flower Show is the Children's Wheelbarrow.

More details to come when I have them. 14:40 Amanda Holden wore a pink wraparound Dolce & Gabbana dress and leopard print high heels to Chelsea today. Miaow. She revealed that David Walliams, her new co-judge on Britain's Got Talent, is a "feeder": He's got a very dark, sort of weird sense of humour. He's a feeder, he's constantly giving you chocolate and cake and all sorts of beautiful things. Amanda Holden at the Chelsea Flower Show 13:57 The sun has just started to come out at Chelsea finally. Here's a violinist playing in a rose garden. 13:46 Rock and roll royalty have been busy looking around the gardens today. The Who frontman Roger Daltrey was at the Homebase Teenage Cancer Trust Garden as a patron of the charity.

Liz Dobbs has sent through this beautiful picture from Chelsea of Interspecific hybrid lilies. "They are so fragrant and will grow in any well-drained soil," she says.

The exhibit, entitled Duel and the Crown, brings the sport to life through plant and garden design, as well as featuring live fencing demonstrations throughout the week from GB international athletes. 12:39 Taxi! Hailo, the genius black cab app, is celebrating Chelsea Flower Show with bespoke "Flower Power" cabs. Ian Drummond, Chelsea Gold Medal winning garden designer helped create them.

Here's a map to help you decide. My personal tip is Manicomio - the food is divine. Or Bibendum for oysters and sweet peas. 12:04 Louise Gray has been speaking to Ricky Gervais, an avid fan of nature. Gervais was avoiding the "celebs" by viewing the more under stated artisan gardens. It seems the comedian is an unexpected gardening fan who comes every year. "It sends a chill down my spine when you see something done so well," he says. I think nature is unconditionally perfect and beautiful and anyone who takes on the task to make it even better is amazing. 11:51 Celebrities are arriving thick and fast. Louise Gray has spotted suave fox Nigel Havers "looking very smart in a dark suit but a bit out of place amid more casual look favoured by most gardening types." She's also been speaking with Floella Benjamin. Floella Benjamin looking very summery in pink says Chelsea is all about uplifting our spirits.
