RHS Chelsea flower show 2013 - 2



the M&G investments centenary garden – ‘windows through time’
‘”the design embraces both new and traditional garden features from modern sculpture to planting threaded with shrubs popular in the 1900s

“a contemporary sculpture ‘window’ frames the design, giving the impression of looking back at a century old Chelsea garden”

that’s what it said in the souvenir catalogue, price £10

  1. Nice pic, I think it would be improved if the thatched roof building was right inside the circular sculpture. I know its a bit picky - and you may not have been able to get the angle right. The garden looks great.

    1. it was a deliberate decision not to frame the thatched building in the rusty ‘window’ as
      1. i thought if i did it would be too chocolate-box
      2. the photograph was meant to be more about more the rust than the garden
      3. if i’d have got low enough to frame the building, with my knees I’d never have got up again!
