In this episode, garden designer Andy Sturgeon picks all the things he’d love to have in his fantasy garden - a crazy multiverse of different climate zones and garden styles from a jungle to a desert and a traditional space with topiary and roses… and monkeys. Discover what floral event he’s desperate to see; which international designers he would have help create his dream space; why he wants a fern house; and his thoughts on the sticky subject of sustainability in garden design. Learn about how he is designing his own new garden in the country, and the big question - will he or won’t he do Chelsea Flower Show again? Listen to find out.
