Thursday, May 30, 2024 • Duration 15:35

The Viewer's Content Show Garden - Realised by Pip Probert

This garden is a reflection of the average plot. A space that has to work practically, financially and often as a quick fix.

Designer, Pip, has been working with some of the Gardeners’ World Viewers to incorporate their ideas showcased on the BBC2 programme, including ideas for the greenhouse, potting shed, fluff hangers, hedgehog ramps and even a sculpture.

The ideas have been put together to form a garden for people who love to make something out of nothing, as reusing, recycling, re-purposing and upcycling are words that define this garden. From pallet planters and fencing through to old windows and shower screens being used for the greenhouse, and doors to make an arbour seat.
