Anyone else done work at Tatton Park before ? Any benefits from doing It ? We are just nearing the end of building a back to back garden for FRSP a charity based in Toxteth, designed by Emily Ross at EAT Landscape Design. It has been a long hard week but a great experience. Last few days of planting and tweeking before judging on Monday. Looking forward to walking around the site next week without a wet pair of boots on !

i took my dear old mum there last year matty.she was like moses parting the waves in her wheelchair :D .my mrs wanted to buy some plants ,so myself and my mum stayed by a display and waited . abel landscapes had done the paving on it .waited there for about half an hour . the amount of people that took one of their flyers was unreal.nothing great about the paving as in design.my mate works in a builders merchants on the wirral and they supplied the materials for one of the displays. think you will get a good response from there matty.

Cheers for that mate. We got a Silver medal for our efforts which I was made up with and a 30 second bit of air time on BBC 2. Going on Thursday to rip it all out, nice bit of stress relief !
