We are delighted to say that our display at Hampton Court won us a Silver-Gilt award.

The main feature was an area of stones planted with low growing Thyme, including Creeping Red thyme, Russettings, Bressingham Pink, White creeping thyme and Hartington Silver. 

Other herbs flowering at this time are the Blue and white Korean mint, the scented leaves of which are ideal for making a tea to relieve the aftermath of a night out! There was great interest in the flowering mallows, “Zebrina” and “Mauritiana”. 

We also had the pleasure to meet Monty Dom who was filming alongside Joe Swift,  Rachel de Thame and joined by Carol Klein and Toby Buckland. 

Hampton Court Flower Show was first shown on 9th July at 8pm, BBC Two.

Here is the recipe for the Rosemary shortbread that I gave out at the Grow Theatre
