 | Our show garden has been designed to be a comfortable and pleasing space for a late middle aged or retired couple who would like to spend time in their garden without having to do too much mainentance. They are interested in recycling as well as having some interesting features in the garden. To this end we have a sleeper wall providing both screening and a raised bed, glass panels in the sleepers and amongst the planting, and an unusual glass water feature. There will be a variety of shrubs, perennials, grasses and ferns, with a timberglobe sitting amoung the planting for further interest. The whole garden is mulched with recycled rubber tyres in a variety of colours. |
All the plants in our garden will be for sale. If you want to reserve some on Friday or Saturday I can write you a receipt which will enable you to come back to the show on Sunday to collect them. Please see me at the show or email me for further details.
The RHS will shortly be giving details of all the gardens here. If you would like to buy tickets please click here.
We are working with Brett Paving who are donating the paving for our garden and Dunweedin who are donating the recycled rubber mulch. We are also working with local craftsman, Robin Harry of Light Kiln Glass who is designing some glass panels and a glass water feature for us.
The plan has been designed and drawn using Vectorworks, which is a sophisticated drawing package. Caroline has had support from Tamsin Slatter of Vectorworks training throughout the project. Please click here to see Tamsins blog about the show garden.
