A garden and a pavilion demonstrating
the very best of UK creativity and
innovation in garden design, plant science
and the preservation of the natural
environment and an events programme
to promote British expertise
and build new partnerships.
The whole pavilion offered an innovative,
engaging experience with
tactile and interactive educational and
awareness features addressing initiatives
such as climate adaptation, sustainability,
botany and environmental
enhancement.
Visitors learnt how herbs and flowers
can be used in food and drink and
how urban spaces can be transformed
into areas of cultivation and play, bringing
the natural world into the city and
inspiring people to live more sustainable
lives at home and to reuse, refresh
or recycle their products.
A meadow showcased the importance
of animal pollinators, alongside
woodland, a wild flower meadow and
biodiversity garden. Installations by
sculptor Rob Mulholland used a variety
of different materials and forms to
show the delicate relationship between
humans and the natural world.
