Graham Bodle of Walkers of Doncaster Garden Centre, won both a gold medal and the award for the best Artisan Garden at Chelsea Flower Show 2017 for his stunning 'Walkers Wharf Garden'.

'The Walkers Wharf Garden' turns a derelict industrial space into a usable outdoor area. A disused industrial wharf, reminiscent of those along the waterways of northern England, provided the inspiration for Graham. It includes a drawbridge, crane arm and a decked area in which to relax. Graham explained; "pines and conifers are used to give the garden structure and a feeling of maturity. Ground cover plants, including grasses, are planted in and around the edges of the industrial hard landscaping. The colour palette is predominantly green to give a sense of calm and well being."
