The finished show garden.
Visitors to the show garden
There were many challenges during the eleven day build for the
designers and their landscape team from Tattersall Landscapes,
also RHS show garden first timers. Paul Tattersall’s ten years
experience in the industry showed when he had to expertly cut
every sett on site to create the beautiful circular paving area.
topped off by the three designers being interviewed by Monty
Don for the BBC’s coverage of the show. The garden couldn’t
have happened without all the support and donations from
the sponsors in particular London Stone, Jackson’s Fencing,
Hedgeworx, Urbis and Tactile Studios.
Particularly challenging was manoeuvring the large Taxus hedge
into place with millimetre precision to incorporate the steel
support structure from which the botanical panels hung. Many
thanks also go to family and friends that were drafted in to help
with all manner of things from planting to transport.

Court Palace show team. An all round amazing experience was
