A garden for the future, rooted in beauty

We’re excited to launch a remarkable partnership with David Austin® who are celebrated worldwide for their iconic English Roses. This collaboration is a key part of our Next Chapter Project, marking 20 years of horticultural excellence and innovation at one of the UK’s most cherished historic gardens.

Celebrating the beauty and resilience of the English Rose

Planted in collaboration with David Austin Roses in November 2024, this border has been designed to showcase the beauty of the English Rose collection. It highlights a rich variety of forms, colours, and growth habits, creating a display that changes through the seasons.

Fragrance, flower form, and size are at the heart of the design, offering visitors an immersive sensory experience. Each variety has also been carefully chosen for its strength and ability to thrive in the face of a changing climate.
