Another string to our bow at Hampton Court this year is the Discovery garden. We've grown and sourced all the plants for this one and are helping to plant it up along with the two designers, Gill Lomax and Steve Pearce who are teachers at the Libra school and were inspired by pictures of the Tiverton canals.
Steve says "It's stressful because we are not garden designers and we've been here since day one of the build up, we've been very hands-on with the building and planting."
This is a real achievement from a little school in Devon, it's quite unusual because it's not a charity and it's not a commercial venture either. We've worked very closely with the school and even have two students who come and do work experience at the nursery, this garden is quite special, and the kids are great.
