Piet Oudolf transforms RHS Garden Wisley into a sustainable perennial paradise
In short: Internationally renowned designer Piet Oudolf is reimagining the Glasshouse Borders at RHS Garden Wisley. This new landscape prioritizes biodiversity and water efficiency, offering a glimpse into the future of sustainable, perennial-focused public gardening.
Opening in summer 2024, the project features a curated selection of over 160 distinct perennial species. By moving away from traditional planting methods, the design aims to minimize the necessity for irrigation while simultaneously boosting local biodiversity.
This initiative aligns with the Royal Horticultural Society's long-standing mission, established in 1804, to promote excellence in the science and art of horticulture through their core principles of inspiration and improvement.
