Silver-Gilt Medal Winners 2019
The Real Green Gardener was awarded the Silver-Gilt medal by The Royal Horticultural Society for The Kingston Maurward Garden project in Dorset.
This project combined contemporary and traditional approaches to create a garden that perfectly embodies the philosophy of the college in its education of future professionals.
The planting creates a calming, romantic space inspired by the rich history of plant collections at KMC.
Testimonials
“Steve and his team have just finished transforming a part of our garden which was not being used to its full extent. At the planning stage, Steve listened to what the area was to be intended for and offered suggestions and ideas according to this. On the days they came to do the work, they were professional, friendly and very easy to have around. The end result is perfect, thank you. I would recommend The Real Green Gardener to anyone, they listened to what I wanted and provided the service at a very reasonable cost.”
“The Real Green Gardener', Steve Howes, and his team, worked their magic transforming the Foundation Stage learning environment at the front of the school. The children arrived back to find grass, trees, benches, stages, new sand pit and mini hills. The children are already benefiting from enriched learning opportunities in beautiful surrondings. In both gardens, the children will be encouraged to develop and enhance their skills through exploring and investigating the environment.”
