DRY GARDEN - HAMPTON COURT FLOWER SHOW 1995

BUILDER - RHINO ROCK LANDSCAPES

DESIGNER - BRYAN ALBRIGHT

 
 

   This garden was built for the Royal Horticultural Society flower show at Hampton Court in 1995. The construction took 1 month but the preparation of the plants took almost 9 months. An imported Japanese Yew was shipped in from Holland and over wintered  at the Hadlow College Horticultural School in Kent. Stone for the garden was gathered from hill farms in Wales and the slate bridge was actually reclaimed stone from an old Welsh bridge. The garden won a Royal Horticultural Society Gold Medal.
