We have supplied Yew Practical Instant Hedge™ and Pine trees for Sadie May Stowell’s Oregon Show Garden. This showcases the natural beauty of the state of Oregon, including wildflower planting, natural crisp clear waterfalls and forest planting. The planting is natural in appearance and focuses on pollinating plants and flowers.

Lastly, Melanie Hick used our Elaeagnus evergreen screens for her award-winning Climate Forward Garden. A front garden re-imagined for our changing environment with style and sustainability front and centre. It is influenced by Australian garden design. It has evolved to cope with the demands of harsh climate conditions like drought and flooding rains.
