It is 80 foot high and has a union jack flag on the top and later the Queen will be presented with a gift at the site in honour of her and her Jubilee celebration.

The Queen is patron of the Royal Flower show at Kew and this year displays are focused on red, white and blue in honour to her and the centrepiece is a giant pyramid at which she will be given a gift in her honour.

Quote:

“For the Olympics, gardeners and volunteers at Kew Gardens planted 20,000 plants in the shape and colors of the Olympic rings. It took five days to put in pansies, violas and apple mint. In another big display, fields of wildflowers surround Olympic Park. Brits are being encouraged to follow suit in their own gardens, and expert Phil Turvil has suggested a list of 12 vegetables in London 2012 colors”
