Everyone's got something to say about Chelsea. Dipping into the floral blogosphere this week gives a good perspective on how this year's show will be remembered...
James Alexander-Sinclair has some behind the-behind-the-scenes observations of his tour with HRH on Monday
Photographer Howard Sooley picks his favourites for The Guardian.
Martyn Cox has launched a special Chelsea celebrity bingo competition
Meanwhile a relaxed, show-garden-free Cleve West has been looking in from the sidelines.

Despite my respect for the joiners, who worked flat out, we realised the next day that we weren't home and dry. The proportions of the top section were completely wrong and after a day of agonising, I finally made the bold decision to saw a bit of the top section off!
I'm so glad I did as I immediately knew that we were doing the right thing and people arrived, just as we finished, to praise the building.
In the meantime we had a photo shoot for the Telegraph. The photographer was very professional and set up some great artistic shots of me and the garden, which hopefully will appear in the paper next Saturday.
Chris, the blacksmith, spent the rest of the day fire fighting problems with the apiary (see photo) and at last, we set off in an open top jeep back to Cumbria, with the apiary roof behind us. Back to those we love and had left behind, eventually arriving home at 2am!
Setting off at dawn tomorrow for the final long week of preparing the show garden!
