LCGD Graduates shine at the Hampton Court Royal Garden Palace Festival
Our talented LCGD graduates stole the show at the recent Hampton Court Royal Garden Palace Festival with their stunning “All About Asteraceae” borders.
The LCGD partners with the RHS to celebrate the Asteraceae plant family
The London College of Garden Design has teamed up with the Royal Horticultural Society to create a new planting feature, “All About Asteraceae: the plant family with flower power” for this year’s RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival. Planted by recent graduates of the college, seven borders along Ditton Avenue will welcome visitors to the Festival and will showcase the wide variety and diversity of plants in the genus Asteraceae.
How can designers contribute to a sustainable future?
At LCGD we take the challenges we face to biodiversity and a changing climate seriously and ensure that the very wide subject of sustainable design is discussed on ALL our courses.
