ULTRASCAPE ’ S SUMMER ROMANCE WITH THE RHS

Claude Monet once famously said , “ My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece ”, and after their market-leading materials featured in three award-winning RHS gardens , this is a sentiment certainly shared by UltraScape .
A number of UltraScape materials were used in the construction of Rachel ’ s Covid Recovery Garden including pro-bed HS bedding mortar , pro-prime slurry primer , flowpoint fine in Natural Grey and slipbond brick slip adhesive .
Bea also used a selection of UltraScape materials at her ‘ RHS and BBC North West Community Urban Garden at RHS Tatton Park – a garden designed to demonstrate how city centre spaces can be made into accessible green spaces .
A Silver Gilt Medal , Best Construction Award and Best Young Designer are three prestigious accolades awarded to Rachel Platt at RHS Tatton Park for her stunning ‘ Covid Recovery Garden ’. Designed to ‘ give those suffering from long Covid an accessible , restorative space ’, Rachel ’ s breath-taking garden featured a tree with messages of support and remembrance , transparent arbour and rain garden .
Silver Gilt Medal Award winner , Bea Tann , the youngest gardener to feature at RHS Chelsea Flower Show , used UltraScape slipbond and cempoint to install the reclaimed rough stone bricks in her ‘ Enchanted Rain Garden ’. Inspired by a rainy day in Manchester , Bea ’ s gorgeous garden features ‘ robust , deep green planting with waxy textures that glisten when wet .’
Joe Swift , much-loved garden designer and TV Presenter , had the honour of designing BBC Radio 2 and The One Show ’ s ‘ Sow Grow and Show Garden ’ at 2022 RHS Tatton Park . Created to celebrate and encourage ‘ growing our own ’ Joe ’ s stunning garden featured a potting bench , raised beds full of carrots , salad leaves and potatoes , and an ‘ abundance of beautiful grasses and perennials ’.
