So who is designing a garden for Hampton court then ?
Bunny is referring to a feature on the One Show on Wednesday night. Viewers are being invited to design a family garden, which will then be constructed, by experts, at this year's RHS Hampton Court.
That edition of the One Show can be seen on iplayer here:

The section about the competition can be seen by moving the cursor to 24 minutes.

It's not actually very big - 24 1/2 foot y 24 1/2 foot in old 'money'
8 metres square.
Fancy something a lot more ambitious, do we?
He he he
I have enough trying to 'design', this lot outside
having a go for fun wont be able to enter
i count as trade
I'm tinkering with a design for this. Not really done this sort of thing before, I believe the RHS will be providing the plants but I don't know how they're going to make them look established etc. Its weird trying to do a plan like this as you would usually get some inspiration from the house / style and any existing features. 8 x 8 is such a blank canvas!
I would have liked to have a go, but don't live in UK so not allowed.
