In his regular garden design column for Bath Life, Nick focuses in this issue on the wealth of talent from our city that headed to this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show….

Whilst the event is open to the public for just five days, the lead-up and afterlife of any show garden stretches far beyond this. This year saw 28 gardens contending for the much-coveted judges’ certificates. The show was definitely greener than ever, both in colour and attitude. Planting not only took on a more calming planting palette of greens, yellows and white, but it also seemed also to reflect the growing momentum to more sustainable living. Drought and pollution tolerant planting appeared throughout the gardens, with trees being often being favoured over the garden studio or outdoor living spaces. And what a range of trees this year; from a leaning pine on the Morgan Stanley Garden to a giant monkey puzzle tree in the Forestry Commission’s Resilience Garden. The message was undeniable; we must look after our woodlands and help them adapt to the growing threat of climate change.

It was a great pleasure to meet the founder of Bath’s Electric Daisy Farm, Fiona Haser Bizony, recently. Exciting times for the flower farm as they prepare to open their first London store later this year.

The flower farm moved recently to a larger, secret site just a short journey from Bath so the team has been busy adding new beds, new varieties and even a pond that will help drainage and also provide the opportunity for a dip in the warmer months ahead.

For more information, head to Nick’s regular garden design column in Bath Life. Their latest issue is out today and features this very special local flower farm.
