The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) has revealed the designs for all gardens to feature at the 2019 RHS Chelsea Flower Show and the Landscape Institute (LI) is delighted that this year it features a number of LI members and registered practices tackling some of the main challenges of the day.
From how we manage resources sustainably and the interconnectivity between our online and offline lives, to the incredible health benefits of nature, some of the UK’s leading landscape architects will be showcasing their work and promoting the landscape profession at RHS Chelsea Flower Show, sponsored by M&G Investments.
Those gardens designed by landscape architects or garden designers who employ landscape architects include:
RHS Back to Nature Garden
The prestigious RHS Back to Nature Garden, is co-designed by HRH The Duchess of Cambridge and landscape architects Andrée Davies and Adam White, who is the President of the LI. The garden draws inspiration from childhood memories triggered by the natural world. Key elements of the design include a hollow log, a den building area, a stream and a tree house all woven together by playful planting and trees.

The aim of the garden is to promote the physical and emotional well-being that access to green spaces and gardening provides. The RHS’s partnership with NHS England is at the heart of the project, and after RHS Chelsea, much of the planting will feature in an NHS Mental Health Trust garden also being designed by HRH The Duchess of Cambridge with Davies White Ltd.

Continuing the collaboration and to engage even wider audiences, The Duchess of Cambridge and Andrée and Adam will be co-designing two further RHS Gardens, incorporating many of elements from the RHS Back to Nature garden at RHS Chelsea, at RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival (2-7 July 2019) and a permanent children’s’ garden at RHS Garden Wisley in Surrey.

“同样重要的是这些园林设计所表明的社会问题，就像RHS回归自然之园的突出地位说明了与大自然的接触能够显著改善我们的健康和福祉。作为支持和促进景观专业利益的组织，我们很高兴RHS与NHS英国的合作关系，而这个活动的核心是通过绿色空间提升人的身心愉悦感。更加关注儿童和更广泛的健康是改善人们生活的一个关键组成部分，以这种方式与社区合作是所有景观专业人士需要注意的关键。
Helen Tranter，景观协会副院长
‘This is an important year for the Landscape Institute as we celebrate ninety years of the organisation, which was actually formed at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show almost a century ago, so it is fitting that the work of our members, practices and our current President will be featured so prominently in such a high profile horticultural show.’ –
‘What is also important are some of the issues these garden designs address and the prominence that the RHS Back to Nature Garden in particular, places on how contact with nature can significantly improve our health and wellbeing. As an organisation supporting and promoting the benefits of the landscape profession, we are particularly pleased that the RHS’s partnership with NHS England, promoting the physical and emotional well-being that access to green spaces and gardening provides, is at the heart of this initiative. The focus on children and on health more generally, is a key component in improving peoples’ lives and working with communities in this way is key for all landscape professionals.’
Helen Tranter, Vice-President of the Landscape Institute
