Green Team Interiors were delighted that their favourite garden Hope on the Horizon not only won a Silver Gilt at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show but also won the People’s Choice for Best Show Garden.
Hope on the Horizon is a contemplative space that represents the process which injured servicemen and women go through on the road to recovery, designed to support Help for Heroes.
Granite blocks symbolise the soldiers’ physical wellbeing and planting reflects their mental wellbeing. The journey starts with a rough, unfinished and overgrown area, evolving through the garden to conclude with a perfectly structured section. An avenue of hornbeams draws attention to a sculpture resembling a horizon, a reminder to the soldiers that they all have a bright future ahead. As well as areas to relax and reflect, the garden also offers focal points along the journey.
The garden will live on at the Help for Heroes Recovery Centre in Colchester to be enjoyed by recovering veterans.
