Six Design Favourites from RHS Chelsea Flower Show

Here are six of our favourite emerging garden design ideas we can help you bring to life –

The Natural Look – Taking inspiration from middle eastern garden designs, this can be easily replicated using wildflower turf with species of Cowslip, Achillia and Harebell creating a glorious haven for wildlife.
Add a ‘Mini Forest’ – One of the most popular sights at this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show was lots more woodland gardens that will feel like a ‘mini forest’ in your own backyard.
Some displays on the show also highlighted the environmental benefits of woodland garden with bio-diverse trees.
Going Green – Greens, white and yellow planting palettes add texture to your garden and extra interest for visitors.
Ferns that sometimes languished in the shadows in the past have also made a comeback, creating vibrant green foliage.
Architectural Statements – A wonderful way to draw attention to parts of your garden is the installation of architectural features such as pergola’s plus raised decking for a designated social space perfect for taking in those summer nights with a drink or two.
Water Features – Adding water features adds a splash of drama to your garden, with options such as waterfalls flowing into a pond will create a mini-oasis in your outdoor space.
The Charm of Cow Parsley – Delicate white flowers and fern-like foliage of cows parsley adds a naturalistic charm.
