Ian LeGros Curator RHS Garden Hyde Hall

I joined the Hyde Hall team as an untrained assistant gardener in 1992, was promoted to Garden Superintendent in April 2005 and then to Curator in June 2006. Over the years I have been lucky enough to play a lead role in many of Hyde Hall’s landmark projects including setting out the Farmhouse Garden, the redevelopment of the Queen Mother’s Garden, and the creation of the Millennium Avenue and Wild Wood. Most recently I helped to co-design the new Robinson Garden which was opened in 2007.

Flower Festival

Posted by Ian LeGros on 04 Jun 2008 at 03:01 PM

When the idea of a flower festival came about, one of my garden team members - Michelle Renwick - eagerly volunteered to 'dress' our events barn.

Michelle, who in her spare time is studying floristry at Writtle College, has a great talent for flower arranging and relished the challenge when asked to create a number of displays.

Michelle's creations are now in the events barn for visitors to enjoy and will stay there until the end of the week (Sunday 7 June).

The displays use a number of traditional summer flowers such as lupins, sweet peas, phlox, stocks, alliums, astilbe, lilies and a good selection of roses.
