Chelsea Flower Show 2023

Emma debuted at Chelsea Flower Show 2023 with her award-winning, five-star, Essence of Life Garden. Collaborating with figurative bronze artist Dawn Conn, Kamil Rybak of London Hard Landscapes and Henry White of Reclaimed Design, the garden was designed to showcase Dawn’s sculptures.

Emma created an enchanting setting for the sculptures, connecting naturalistic planting with dynamic flowing water. A vibrant running water feature flows through a reclaimed lock gate and on under a bridge of reclaimed timber. The sustainable planting echoes the canal habitats throughout the UK and features both flood- and drought-tolerant species.
