BBC GARDENERS' WORLD LIVE AWARDS
The Show Gardens are created by a diverse array of designers ranging from those with respected international reputations, students and competition winners to professional landscapers. The designers bring themes to life based on their own imaginations or the ideas of the gardens’ sponsors with coveted RHS medals being awarded for gardening excellence when the gardens are judged by the RHS panel of experts just before the show opens.
SHOW GARDEN AWARDS 2009
Here you can see a list of the medals awarded to the Show Gardens which featured at the 2009 Show.
The 'Best Show Garden 2009' was awarded to 'Your England: From Information to Destination' - Sponsored by the Highways Agency
The Highways Agency worked with Marney Hall again to present another garden at last year's show. As well as winning the best show garden Marney Hall was awarded another gold to add to her collection. The garden took visitors on a journey through different English landscapes and follows a course of a spring form it conception in the mountains, tumbling over a waterfall, running through a moorland, woods and meadows and culminating in a lake near the sea, A road runs throughout the garden illustrating that these beautiful landscapes can be reached through the strategic road network which are maintained and operated by the Highways Agency.
The Judging Panel was led by Micheal Balston, landscape architect, author and lecturer on garden design. He commented: "The standards achieved by Marney Hall with the Highways Agency Garden are exemplary"
