Tips from Tatton for a great garden


With six gold medal winning garden designs, the RHS Tat­ ton Park Flower Show had some inspiring ideas for gar­ deners thisyear, writes local gardeningtutorSue Jqffries. The sunny weather also


helped us to see all the new garden designs at their very best.


Joan Mulvenna and An­


drew Lee’s “See the Wind” garden looked spectacu­ lar with its specially made “wind cloud” sculpture that hung above the centre of the garden and sparkled and moved in the wind while the tallplantsandgrassesswayed beneath it in the breeze. The vibrant colours in


Pip Probert’s “The Narrows” created a design with a tropi­ cal, holiday feel that would brighten up any Ribble Val- • leyhome.


; Three young designers


had built innovative ganlens with a brief to push back the boundaries with a theme of “avant-gardening”. My favourite was Clare


Broadbent’s “WorkOUT” gar­ den, which crammed in lots


of outdoor exercise equip­ ment (including an exer­ cise bike, mini-trampoline, benches and bars) whilst creating a functioning and attractive garden with a wa-


terfeaturethatdoubledasan upper body workout!


Clare won a gold and the


RHS People’s Choice Award for best small garden. • Each of these gardens


can give design inspiration to both amateur and profes­ sional gardeners here in the Ribble Valley. I will be running a work­


shop at Whalley Old Gram-, mar School Community Centre on Sunday, August


. 17th, from 10 am to 3-30 pm, where 1 will be discussing all these designs, together with those from RHS Chelsea Flower Show, and showing how some of the effects and approaches can be used in both small and large gardens in the Ribble Valley. To reserve a place or
