Foreign and Colonial's Tempest in a Teapot.This year we are sponsoring an Urban Garden at the Chelsea Flower Show 2008. This site has been designed to give you an insight into various elements brought together to mark this event and to keep you updated on the development of the garden. The "Tempest in a Teapot" is a garden to celebrate the 140th anniversary of both Foreign and Colonial Investment Trust's inception and marking the death of the world acclaimed classical composer Gioacchino Rossini. Rossini likened his musical composition process to "starting with a whisper and building into a loud, glittering storm" - reminiscent of the growth of Foreign and Colonial Investment Trust over the past 140 years.
