Prime Coverage at Chelsea
The 100% NZ Garden won a silver medal at the gardening world’s most prestigious annual event – the Chelsea Garden Show. The garden was inspired by the West Coast of Auckland, and features a black sand beach framed by native rainforest, reminiscent of designer Xanthe White’s childhood holidays in the Waitakere Ranges. White documented the lead up to the show in an online diary for the BBC, which received 1.5 million hits in its first week. The 100% NZ Garden will soon be featured on BBC1 and Australia’s Better Homes & Gardens, and in magazines Gardens Illustrated (UK), the Garden Magazine (UK) and Eden (Germany).
