As a complete non-gardener and fully-formed dunce when it comes to landscape design, I was greatly enlightened by the guest for the third edition of Talk About London, a joint endeavour by On London and The London Society, whose chair, Leanne Tritton is my co-host.
Charlotte Harris (pictured, centre) of the Harris Bugg Studio, who is both an individual and a collective winner of Chelsea Flower Show awards, provided insights into everything from the joys and quirks of “the most famous flower show in the world”, to why green walls can be mixed blessings, to the pandemic’s silver lining, to the pleasures of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Watch the whole thing.
