The Andrew Duff-designed ‘Savills And David Harber’ garden reflects

the underlying trend across all show gardens: eco-friendly practices

(above & below). Says artist David Harber, who designed its scene-

stealing sculpture: “Our piece supports the message of sustainability

and mirrors the garden’s ethos, providing respite and calm in an urban

environment.” Large trees, ferns, ranunculus, geraniums and an air-

purifying wetland area come together to create a stunning green oasis.

TIP: A WATER FEATURE CAN DOUBLE AS AN

IRRIGATION DEVICE. HERE (INSET), TREES

AND A PLANTED WALL FILTER POLLUTION

FROM THE AIR, WHILE THE POOL CLEANS

THE WATER AND STORES IT IN A HARVESTING

SYSTEM FOR IRRIGATION USE.
