Brett Landscaping has supported Viriditas Garden Design Studio by donating materials to help create an environmentally friendly RHS show garden.
Brett, leading independent provider of landscaping materials, donated Limestone and Buff Gravel for gabion walls for Viriditas’ ‘Nurturing nature in the city’ garden at RHS Hampton Court Palace.
Viriditas is known for their emphasis on sustainability and environmentally friendly designs. They aimed to create a captivating and eco-conscious oasis in a small urban space, utilising waste, and reclaimed materials. They envisioned a space of relaxation, socialisation, and play.

The studio showcased their designs at the highly anticipated RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival. With the garden show attracting approximately 140,000 visitors annually, Viriditas recognised the significance of choosing the right quarry to provide the necessary stone for their gabion walls. They opted for Brett Limestone; known for its versatility, durability, and natural beauty.
Seeking to incorporate rough-hewn offcuts that would otherwise go to waste or be processed into aggregate, the decision to opt for Brett's Limestone aligns perfectly with their commitment to sustainable practices.
Caroline Clayton, Creative Director at Viriditas, said: "We are thrilled to be creating a show garden at Hampton Court Flower Show this year. Finding the right quarry to supply the stone for our gabion walls was crucial, and we were immediately drawn to Brett's honey coloured limestone. Their support allowed us to bring our wild garden vision to life."
The exhibition extends beyond the show garden itself. Following the conclusion of the festival, the garden will be relocated to an inner-city sixth form school in Camden. By donating the garden to the school, Viriditas, along with Brett, are contributing to creating a green and inspiring learning environment for the students.
