A Garden Fit for a King
=======================

 Large Show Garden

 A Garden Fit for a King offers a stunning take on gardening for the future. In this year of the coronation, this beautiful space will celebrate The HM King Charles III’s passion for gardening and his concern for the environment. Visitors will be inspired by sustainable initiatives that the King has integrated into the renowned gardens at Highgrove. This beautiful manifestation of the King’s ideology, will be a Show Garden inspired by the ecosystem of the Highgrove Arboretum, incorporating a natural wildflower carpet interspersed with the King’s favourite trees, Magnolia, Beech, Acer and Cherry. The Show Garden will pay homage to a selection of the 70 varieties of plants incorporated in the commemorative wildflower meadow planted at Highgrove for the 60th anniversary of the late HM The Queen’s Coronation. Visitors will be inspired to create their own ecosystem at home from aspects of the Show Garden There will be many recognisable hints to Highgrove, plus an atmospheric Bothy cottage made entirely from natural building materials, which visitors will be able to meander through as part of the garden experience.
