The st george ‘Alight Here’ Balcony Garden
Chelsea Flower Show Balcony & Container Gardens
GOLD MEDAL AWARD WINNING
Inspired by florist Lee Miller's guerrilla displays arranged in bins around New York City to create something special from the everyday.
Using reclaimed and repurposed materials from urban life: railway sleepers, rubbish bins, bricks and ice buckets.
Titled ‘Alight Here’, the garden provides a space to escape the routine of day to day life in London and ‘take the weight off’.
The garden creates a relaxing but playful atmosphere, like a welcoming local pub. An ideal space for a morning cup of coffee or an after-work drink.
