Wild Child Cornwall
===================

 The Wild Child Cornwall Garden is a maritime hardy, texturally attractive, biodiverse, colourful space with strong three-dimensional qualities. A series of sculptural live willow forms sit among wildly planted sensory, edible and textural plants. A trail of balance wood blocks invite children to explore. It leads through the pollinator forest of Echium pininana,Stipa giganteaand Verbena bonariensis to the edible flower beds of Borago officinalis and Tropaeolum majus. The path then flows to the fragrant growing willow sculpture forms that act as small play spaces as well as areas to sit, observe and study plants and wildlife.
