Bridgewater – Canal, Coal & Craft – in association with Salford Council
RHS Tatton Park 2017

This garden represents the urban canal system running through Salford, and it’s regeneration into a place for people and nature to enjoy. Wooden arches represent the canal tunnels, with the predominately orange planting representing the canal water, which due to a high level of naturally occurring iron is orange. The planting style is naturalistic, with grasses and perennials weaving together in and around the wooden arches.

Winner of Best Show Feature at RHS Tatton Park 2017.
