Chelsea Flower Show’s ‘most biodiverse’ garden wins gold

The garden includes 313 species of plants, reflecting the number of different types of trees that can occur in a single hectare of tropical forest.

“It’s an amazing abundance of diversity of life, and it’s something that really needs protecting and showcasing,” Mr Bristow explained.

While visitors to the garden are immersed in a rich, green landscape representative of a rainforest, all the plants can – and have – been grown in the UK.

Mr Bristow said he hoped it would inspire people to consider making the planting in their own gardens more diverse in order to benefit wildlife.

“It’s been the main thing on my mind for many months and it’s been an enormously complicated process bringing it into being,” he said.

“It’s really special to be recognised because we took a risk with this design and went out on a limb to do something different.

“I’m elated and exhausted in equal measure,” he added.
