Every single garden at this year's Chelsea Flower Show

There are 39 gardens at this year's Chelsea Flower Show made up of 13 Show Gardens, 12 Sanctuary Gardens, four Balcony Gardens, five Container Gardens, four All About Plants gardens and one Feature Garden (unjudged) – but which garden design has won Gold, Best in Show and the People's Choice award?

After undergoing a rigorous judging process, RHS judges awarded garden designers with medals (Gold, Silver-Gilt, Silver and Bronze) on the official opening day.

There is something for everyone this year, with each garden – however big or small – providing inspiration and take-home ideas whilst raising awareness about the environment or the positive effect of gardening for mental health. Situated on Main Avenue, the Show Gardens demonstrates the best of horticulture and excellence in garden design and are the largest gardens at Chelsea, whilst All About Plants is a new garden category, for the first time hosted inside the Great Pavilion, which interprets the positive powers of plants in unique and interesting ways.

We've compiled every single garden from the Chelsea Flower Show 2022 right here, where you can also see the winners for each garden category.

SHOW GARDEN | Award: SILVER-GILT

SHOW GARDEN | Award: SILVER

This is a classical contemporary garden rooted in the belief that gardens are a gift of love, giving pleasure to those who create and nurture them as much as to those who visit and enjoy them.

It features eight flat-topped hawthorn trees to form a structured canopy and a predominantly green palette softened with gentle tones of soft white and plum.

Dedicated to the Eurasian jay (Garrulus glandarius), this balcony is a reimagined urban jay habitat to encourage visitors to consider integrating live plants into their bird-feeding regime.

The Eurasian jay uses hypnum moss for nut caching, so a carpet of green moss is overlaid with a metal grate to encourage it into the space.

This small space also offers a place to relax amongst the greenery and enjoy the view.

CONTAINER GARDEN | Award: SILVER-GILT

This container garden, inspired in part by the recipes and writing of the late Roger Phillips, combines wild edible plants and trees in a small urban setting. The planting is informal, colourful and natural, and a sink and prep area against the back wall makes harvesting easy.

ALL ABOUT PLANTS | Award: SILVER-GILT

This garden attempts to re-establish the connection between plants and fashion. It's intended to imitate a textile, with planting in distinctive blocks of colour to create the impression of a woven fabric. Shallow reflective pools represent dye baths, with fabric or fibres soaking in natural dyes, and paved seams leading through the planting.

ALL ABOUT PLANTS | Award: GOLD

The planting is an original mix of native hedging, flowering fruit trees, perennials, evergreen grasses and wildflowers.

ALL ABOUT PLANTS| Award: SILVER

'This too shall pass' is a mantra passed between mothers navigating the challenges of raising young children and the associated mental health challenges that can come with it. This garden for mothers represents a place of transition: from despair to hope.

Bronze walls and archways represent how long days at home with a baby can feel like either a sanctuary or a cage. The planting transitions from a muted palette to a joyful, feminine celebration of colour.

ALL ABOUT PLANTS| Award: GOLD

Inspired by plant communities in native Japanese forests, this garden's sense of green immersion is heightened by lifting the planting and intersecting a path through it. The charred timber walkway enables visitors to engage with the predominately green understorey.
