  About this garden

 The story 
-----------

This years collaboration of members will show the visitors that by splitting levels you cannot only create two defined areas, but at the same time give a feeling of space and enjoy different views of the garden. It aims to show what can be achieved by using the services of a professional designer and professional landscape contractors.

However, this year we have also included in the collaboration two apprentices. Both currently studying landscaping at Merrist Wood College, we aim to provide them with a fantastic opportunity to work with highly skilled professionals and experience first hand the experience of working in the show environment.

Along side this fantastic garden feature, The Association of Professional Landscapers will also by hosting their Landscape and Design drop in clinics over the three days of the Fair.

Association of Professional Landscapers members will be only too happy to assist you with landscaping and design questions you may have on any past, present or future projects. Remember to bring your designs, your drawings and, most importantly, your ideas!
