 [RHS Malvern Spring Festival 2026](https://gardensdb.com/shows/rhs-malvern-spring-festival-2026) - Beautiful Borders

Stumped
=======

 Border

*Stumped* showcases the value of creating beautiful, biodiverse, and sustainable spaces within the garden. The designer believes that green spaces should support everyone who occupies them, humans, flora and fauna alike.

Large sculptural tree stumps, repurposed from previous show gardens, highlight the importance of leaving deadwood to decompose naturally. In doing so, the garden demonstrates how decaying wood provides habitat, enriches soil health, and contributes to a richer, more resilient ecosystem.
