the modern kitchen garden

The M&G Garden  by Bunny Guinness, that featured at the recent Chelsea Garden Show,  was a modern take on a traditional kitchen garden, combining a beautiful space with a working plot producing fruit, herbs, vegetables and flowers. The garden featured raised beds where cabbages and beans mingled with clematis and roses. Lavender and herbs added fragrance and terracotta pots containing fruit trees appeared throughout.A glass deck appeared to float and offered both a view of the garden and a sheltered space for people and plants below. The garden was framed by pleached trees nearly three metres tall.
