This wonderful garden, designed by Sue Hayward and featuring Liz Elgar’s Super Sports Morgan Three Wheeler won a Gold Medal at the 2019 Chelsea Flower Show.
The RHS Website writes “This is a loved space, created over many years of hard work, that is gradually being reclaimed by nature. The iconic, British, hand-built sports car is of equal passion to the garden owner – the result of a lifetime of planning for an enjoyable and active retirement. The untended garden reflects the limitations of a person with motor neurone disease to maintain it: the mind and senses are still active but the body is in physical decline.The owner can still enjoy the garden’s sensory elements, its relaxed beauty and atmosphere while, unchecked, it becomes a haven for wildlife.”
The garden was based on an idea by Martin Anderson MBE, founder member of the MND Association and built by Soar Valley Services Ltd.
