Garden from the Desert

Garden From The Desert was designed by landscape architect Christopher Bradley Hole for His Late Highness Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan.

The garden was constructed at the Chelsea flower show and awarded with a RHS Gold medal.

With outer walls created from desert sand, an inner wall set out to pure proportions was created from dry stonewalling and interlocked with a sawn sandstone inner layer. A symbol of desalination a glass cube pavilion is the pivot of the design. In the cultivated 'oasis' area planting is vivid and fresh combining perennials such as fennel, iris, poppies and knautias.
