In honour of the Chelsea Royal Flower Show taking place this week, we though we’d dig out a little list of the most colourful gardens in the world to give you some inspiration for your own home, inside and out!

Up first we have this beautiful candy pink moss that grows round the base of Mount Fuji in Japan and creates a wonderful contrast with the blue skies above.

Mixing earthy neutrals with vibrant shades, this mind-blowing shot of rice fields in Yuanyang County, China shows of the wonder of nature in all its glory.

Everybody knows about Holland’s famous tulip fields, home to over 7 million flowers and a whole host of vibrant shades.

Japan again and this time purple and white Wisteria flowers covering this inspirational tunnel in the Kawachi Fuji Gardens.

Finally, for the more adventurous of you, these wild flowers found only in Namaqualand, Namibia turn an arid desert into a blossoming canvas of colour each and every spring.
