Tim's Favourite:

Manor House Gate Piers

Our 2004 Main Avenue exhibit remains my personal favourite, if only for it’s ambition. Our Manor House Gate Piers provide a suitably grand entrance with the fine Obelisk view and Garden Room beyond.

Hillier Team

Here is the Secret Chapel & Cloister from the 2004 show planted to perfection by the Hillier team

Chelsea Cloister

Can you spot our Toothache Man in the foreground?

Secret Chapel

Only a select few were allowed to enter, Margaret Thatcher amongst them, to the consternation of her security! Can I just call out to the guy who took a picture of that and never sent it to me?

Portcullis

A hand-made portcullis protected the cloister from intruders

Cloister with lights

Some might say there’s no point in garden lighting in the summer months but the warmth of this shot in early evening still makes me feel good.

Inside Cloister

Please forgive me for banging on about the Cloister, but you could actually go inside – it was magical, and I have to thank my great friend Steve, as so often, for bringing my dreams to life.
