The Challenger Achievable Gardens competition, offers students and educational institutions the opportunity to showcase their design skills and horticultural knowledge, promote achievable gardening and encourage the use of high-quality plants in the landscape.
It’s a great learning experience for students, allowing them to go through the process from concept design and project coordination to construction of the show garden. No public event gives students a better introduction to working in the horticultural industry.
I am so grateful for Rockcote’s generosity in the past few months. Staff gave me really clear instructions on how to apply the products, which allowed me to create the exact vision I was aiming for. Many attendants at the flower and garden show were convinced that the walls were rammed earth. Their expressions were often a mix of delight and surprise when I told them that the walls were rendered.

– a medal for the most creative use of space
The Rockcote products I used were the lime plaster, fibre glass mesh and the sandstone coloured oxide. For the framing: timber and bendable plywood.
