Hampton Court Palace Flower Show the world´s largest flower show and is a fantastic experience for garden lovers and those looking for unbeatable inspiration. This year LSD is supplying one of the 6 English Poet´s Gardens show gardens that celebrate historic poems written by Keats, Shelly, Byron, Wordsworth, Kipling and Lewis Carroll.
The supplied garden is called "On the Sea by John Keats", designed by Barry Chambers of Changing Scenes.
"Keats´ sonnet "On the Sea" was written in April 1817 on the Isle of Wight. He writes of how the sea has a way of washing away the mundane, stressful ties of human existence with its wild unbound nature. Gardening can provide a similar escape yet many still seek control and perfection in their garden. This design rejoices in chaos. Like a stormy sea, many of the plants are exuberant and out of control. But the restricted colour palette provides relief for the senses similar to that to which Keats refers in his poem. Above the archway (the mouth of a cavern) the three faces of the Titan God Hecate emerge from the chalk cliff."

The garden ended up winning one of the top prizes for the whole show, the Gold Medal for the English Poets Gardens and both Barry Chambers (Changing Scenes) and David Pickard (LSD) were extremelly pleased with the overall result. Not only did the result act like a pat on the back for all the hard work but it also secured business from prospective customers both for the design or gardens and the supply of paving.
