For someone who was unable to visit the show and the poor coverage on TV thank you for sharing. I do like the moss garden which shouldn't be a surprise to me as I do like Japanese-style gardens.

I loved all your choices. I watched from US on the BritBox app. At Chelsea Ann-Marie Powell’s garden was my favorite. She received Children’s Choice and People’s Choice at least. Her Insta “MyRealGarden” and Monty Don got me through our very long COVID lockdown.

I think gardens and gardening saved a lot of us over the whole lockdown period, me included. Loved Ann-Marie’s garden.

Thank you for sharing JP! I love garden shows! The garden designer’s meticulously created such note worthy gardens in so many different aspects, in which to provoke visitors to try something different in their own gardens! I especially love The Money-Saving Gardener, Anna Lautenbach’s garden! So worth buying her book!📕 🪴

It was such an incredible treat to walk inside her garden. There’s so much detail you can’t see from the roped edges. Really wanted to show it here for you all. The garden room was so exquisite with every detail considered.
