FLOWER power has been leaping through a day nursery at Chandler's Ford.

All of the children and staff at the Leapfrog Day Nursery in Valley Park had a blooming marvellous time when they celebrated the start of the Chelsea Flower Show with a host of flower power themed activities.

Everyone was dressed in 60s costumes and the children had their faces painted with daisies as the world's most popular flower show got under way in London.

Throughout the day the green-fingered tots were kept busy planting flowers and also drew their favourite blooms for a display in the nursery.
