The 'Vision in Bloom' Garden

Community Cube – 443, RHS Sandringham Flower Show 2026

The garden was designed in collaboration with local sight loss charity Vision Norfolk to raise awareness of vision impairment and demonstrate how everyone can find fulfilment through gardens.

The asymmetrical yet balanced design reflects the imperfect beauty of the human face. The multi-sensory planting includes tactile and fragrant foliage, edibles, and whispering grasses, so it can be enjoyed by everyone.
