Located in the Discovery Zone of the Chelsea Flower Show is Miracle-Gro’s Ecotherapy Garden – a space which aims to highlight the benefits of ecotherapy on mental health.
Vicky Page, Miracle-Gro’s Garden Designer, said: “This year’s Miracle-Gro garden addresses a hard-hitting and relevant societal issue, and with 25% of children and young people showing some evidence of mental ill health, we’re incredibly proud that our design delivers an important message.
“As well as being a space to enjoy, we feel confident that our garden will help more people to enjoy the positive effect green space can have on mental health.”
The garden was created in partnership with charities YoungMinds and HighGrounds.
