This garden was a very controlled, modern space with a playful element in the form of sculptures made out of penny sweets from Woolworths.  The planting was white with interesting green foliages providing the backdrop.  Red accents added a further dimension of liveliness as the garden showcased several new plant introductions, for example Verbascum ‘Petra’.  The design was geometric and structured to provide a strong base for the soft and frothy planting which billows from the beds.

The garden was awarded a Silver medal.
