Winner of the Best Garden In Show for the second year in a row was The Daily Telegraph Garden, designed by Andy Sturgeon.
His contemporary gravel garden echoes the Fynbos of the southern Cape, the Maquis shrub land of the Mediterranean, the Chaparral of California and Mexico, and the Matorral of central Chile, with its exotic planting, defined spaces, open clearings of sparsely planted gravel and rear courtyard, which houses a shady cork oak.
Rectangles of rusted iron provide a themed structure throughout the garden. His planting includes purple salvia, brown irises, yellow verbascum and sun-tolerant architectural grasses.
