RHS Chelsea 2009 update

So far, so good! I’m just finalising a few bits with the plants, and we are sorted with the bricks, paving, timber etc.


I’ve just got back from a meeting at Anwick Forge in Sleaford, who supplied all my steel work for Chelsea last year. If any of you are interested, have a look at chelsea 2008 on my  website. There were some large cork screws (nothing to do with my love of red wine of course) and long steel rills, which I thought looked cool and Tim and Fran from the forge are a pleasure to work with. This year they are making me some water spouts for my stone walls and the grid for the fire pit, which I am sure are going to be great.


We’ve also finalised the font for the poems that are being carved into the feature walls. I’m getting quite excited now just thinking about it! My next trip is to Clipsham quarry to pick out the stone for the water and poetry walls - I’ll try and get some photos when I’m there; parts of the quarry date back to Roman times so quite interesting for you to see.

Great gardens and designs....

It's great to see a designer creating gardens/landscapes that can realistically work in domestic and public enviroments.
