The announcement that Monty Don - whose writing shed has featured on these pages several times - will be putting together a garden design for the first time for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show next year has not unreasonably focused mostly on the fact that it will be dog-friendly.
But what caught the eye of the Shedworking staff was that the design, inspired by Don's own Longmeadow which regularly features on BBC's Gardener's World television series and pictured above, will also include a summerhouse, or as the RHS put it: "The lawn drifts into longer grass planted with ornamental spring flowering bulbs to create a tameflower, rather than wildflower meadow. Brick paths run straight creating vistas – a touch of Monty Don’s own Longmeadow garden – with one providing the route through the garden for visitors and another leading to the summerhouse." We will watch the design develop with interest and report back here.
