A new tradition could take root at Chelsea

SIR – I have been to the Chelsea Flower Show once in May, and have always enjoyed following it on the BBC.

However, the decision to hold this year’s show in September has been a wonderful change. Seeing all the autumn flowers has been a revelation. Would the Royal Horticultural Society consider alternating between May and September from now on? Veronica Heywood Heathfield, East Sussex
