Brett Landscaping Summer Garden Shows Round-up
Brett Landscaping participated in two RHS Flower Shows and supplied their products to an award-winning installation at the 141st Sandringham Flower Show.
The Nurturing Nature In The City Garden
Working in partnership with Viriditas Garden Design Studio, Brett Landscaping supplied Limestone and Buff gravel for the designers’ environmentally friendly garden installation ‘Nurturing nature in the city’ at the RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival.
Viriditas is known for emphasising sustainability and environmentally friendly designs. By utilising waste and reclaimed materials, they aimed to create a captivating and eco-conscious oasis in a small urban space.

Seeking to incorporate rough-hewn offcuts that would otherwise go to waste or be processed into aggregate, the decision to opt for Brett Landscaping’s Limestone aligns perfectly with their commitment to sustainable practices, as the designers envisioned a space of relaxation, socialising, and play.
Following the festival’s conclusion, the garden was relocated to an inner-city sixth-form school in Camden. By donating the garden to the school, Viriditas and Brett contribute to creating a green and inspiring learning environment for the students.

The Unpave The Way Garden
At the 25th RHS Tatton Park Flower Show, the team supplied permeable block paving to a sustainable, climate-resilient garden designed by multi-award-winning garden designer Leon Davis.
The ‘Unpave The Way’ garden was produced to encourage climate-resilient gardening. It demonstrates how homeowners can future-proof their front and back garden spaces by using sustainable drainage, rainwater harvesting, and permeable paving.
Multi-award-winning garden designer Leon Davis designed the garden on behalf of the North West Regional Flood and Coastal Committee, which includes the Environment Agency, United Utilities, and Lancashire County Council. The committee supported and led the project.
Brett Landscaping worked with the design team to supply a range of appropriate paving for the ‘Unpave The Way’ installation, including the permeable block paving products Invicta Flow and Alpha Flow.
The garden is now being installed for educational purposes at Whitaker Park in Rawtenstall, Lancashire.
Award Winning Sandringham Flower Show Garden
Finally, the team delivered porcelain products to Dwayne Cloxton of Ground Maintenance Landscaping from Stamford, Lincolnshire, for their show garden at the 141st Sandringham Flower Show.
Their garden design, inspired by their newborn son, won the Silver Award at the prestigious show, set in the magnificent surroundings of Sandringham Park with Sandringham House and Sandringham Church as a backdrop.
The one-day show attracts around 20,000 visitors each year and enjoys Royal patronage.
Brett Landscaping also supplied its Elegante Timber Porcelain Paving to give the garden a warm design aesthetic. It is ideal for creating an outdoor sanctuary fit for any season.
Dwayne Cloxton said:
“Sandringham Flower Show 2024 was an amazing day. Thanks to all of our sponsors, donations and supporters. We were fortunate. We were awarded a Silver for our Show Garden. This is an amazing recognition of the hard work and all the people who helped and supported us.”
