Chelsea 2021 - Silver Gilt Medal
The Garden Builders were commissioned to carry out the design of Thomas Hoblyn at The Chelsea Flower Show 2021.Thomas was sponsored by Boodles and designed a magnificent Secret Garden.
I created The Boodles Secret Garden, inspired by the well-loved children’s story by Frances Hodgson- Burnett: a contemporary interpretation of the journey into an enchanted, life changing sanctuary of a secret garden. - Thomas Hoblyn
From the naturalistic planting in the outer beds of Hydrangea paniculata, Rhus typhina, Miscanthus sinensis and spires of Verbena hastata, you are drawn from a palette of muted greens and creams through a high, intricately carved, louvred oak wall into an enchanted, secret garden brimming with jewel like plants. Dahlia campanulata and Fuchsia magellanica var. molinae, introduced beautiful, droplet structures and soft pink into the exotic planting, and altogether a more defined area.
