The Flood Resilient Garden 

The message behind the design

As the climate changes, the way we garden must adapt to cope with the extreme weather events we will increasingly face. The Flood Resilient Garden, designed by Naomi Slade and Ed Barsley and sponsored by Flood Re, was a beautiful space that inspired RHS Chelsea visitors with a range of ways to manage and utilise water in the garden, showing how any outdoor space can be adapted to cope with heavy rainfall, high groundwater and run-off, by storing water and planting appropriately.​

​

Many thanks to the RHS and all our suppliers and contributors, including Thorndown Paints, Neptune Furniture, Riva Home, Paul Baxter, Official photographer: Andrea Jones, and everyone else who helped along the way.
