AN AWARD-WINNING gardener has wowed judges once again and proudly accepted two gold medals at the Chelsea Flower Show this year.
Joe Perkins, from Hove, has managed gardens at the show for the past 12 years.
But this year he entered the competition for the first time under his own name.
The father-of-three asked Facebook to sponsor him, an unusual choice for the flower show, and the first time a social media company joined the event.
They teamed up and The Facebook Garden: Beyond the Screen was born.
