Wellness is the central theme for this category, with gardens taking inspiration from colour therapy and water.
Hamzah-Adam Desai will use the psychology of colour in his designs for MS Amlin Peace of Mind Garden, where the planting and design will reference a colour wheel. Greens, purples and blues will be used to invoke peace and harmony, and reds, yellows and oranges will be an energising presence on the space.
Designer Asleigh Aylett will be exploring the connection between humans and water in the Navium Marine: Blue Mind Gardening. Coastal planting, sea shells to make tiles and pots, and repurposed ocean materials will be used in the garden, which will have a soothing water feature beside a reflective pool.
A balcony garden, Freddie Strickland and Ben Gifford's A Space to Read, sponsored by Viking, is a sanctuary that invites people to connect to nature through a biophilic design, centred around a flowering Cornus kousa.
The Room to Breath Hospital Garden for the TSA designed by Jen Donnelly and Catherine Gibbon will have a similar ethos, serving as a retreat for caregivers with a palette of greens and whites.

Another biophilic design in this category is Secret Base - The Another Green Room, which will be a hidden hideaway, where trees and the sound of water will soothe visitors. Designer Jun Ishihara is following in his father's footsteps in bringing a garden to Chelsea Flower Show - Kazuyuki Ishihara, is one of Chelsea's most regular and renowned designers.
Demonstrating how small outdoor spaces can still be transformed into gardens that provide refuge is the Fettercairn Wilderness Retreat by Sally Giles, Sonia Kamel and Helier Bowling. Planting on the space will be reminiscent of the Cairngorms landscape, echoing the grassy heathland, rocky outcrops and mossy glens.
Komorebi Garden, designed by Masa Taniguichi will bring the Japanese forests of Nagano to Chelsea, creating light piercing through a tree canopy of birch trees.
Carbon sequestration, water recycling and wildlife gardening comes on a tiny but mighty scale in the C6 garden from Joshia Fenton. The garden will be able to store 450 litres of rainwater, and sequester 1200kg of carbon, using elements like biochar.

Another sanctuary from the everyday will be the ME + EM City Garden by Caroline and Peter Clayton, which has been designed for the working woman. Planters clad in moss green and soft pink bejmat tiles are overflowing with planting designed to catch the soft glow of the late afternoon sun.
