After months of exceptional hard work, gardening duo Michael Leech and Gavin Moth opened the Woodstock Homes Multiple Sclerosis Garden in the Pocket Planting section yesterday, and what an opening it was.
The garden represents hundreds of hours of design, planning and procurement, and a wonderful collaboration between Michael, Gavin, Woodstock Homes and The Brightwell. It marks the first time an RHS event has been held at Badminton, and the first time Michael and Gavin have worked together on an RHS garden.
Yesterday, Wednesday 8 July, was the opening of the RHS Badminton Show. Not only did the garden receive wide praise and admiration, but it was also awarded a Silver medal, a truly incredible achievement.
The garden also featured in a BBC Points West news item about the event, which included an interview with Gavin, Michael and our own CEO Doro.
