Jackoboard® is excited to support the next generation of garden design talent! The company has donated products for use in an award-winning show garden in the Young Designers’ category at the new RHS Flower Show at Wentworth Woodhouse in South Yorkshire. The Show was recently featured on the BBC television programme Gardeners’ World.
The garden is inspired by the exquisite craftsmanship of Rockingham Pottery. Called ‘A Potted History’, it is designed by Sam Dryell and invites visitors into a living gallery, where the delicate brushstrokes of history unfurl through petals, stone, and porcelain. Dryell’s attention to detail and dedication are evident in that the garden received a Silver Gilt Medal at the Show.
Jackoboard®’s contribution has been to support the garden’s clay tiled walls, and it is particularly suitable for this, thanks to its well-known properties, which make it the most effective tile backerboard on the market – waterproof, thermally insulating, lightweight and exceptionally strong.
After the show, the garden will be relocated to Rotherham Museums, Arts and Heritage. From there, it will be thoughtfully distributed to community groups and individuals across Rotherham’s urban parks through engagement events with Rotherham Green Spaces team and Children’s Capital of Culture. An event at the Waterloo Kiln site will bring together elements of the garden with opportunities for families to participate in creative activities. This will create a lasting legacy that celebrates the area’s rich ceramic heritage while giving back to the local community.
