This is an artists impression of the Homebase garden - The Garden of Reflections. It has been designed by Thomas Hoblyn and the inspiration came from the 16th century Italian garden Villa Lante,built for the extravagant Cardinal Gambara. The colour scheme includes blues,purples,lime green and orange and also fruit ,veg and herbs. I like it - what do you think ? www.rhs.org.uk/hamptoncourt/2007/exhibitors/showgardens/homebaseImg.aspI am really excited about being on the stand on Tuesday

I like the planting (even though I'm not a huge fan of orange).
I do hope you have a good time and I hope the weather is kind. AND that you come back with plenty of new plants ;D!!!
