This is the inspiring story of a young Australian garden designer and his hard-working team who took their award-winning garden to challenge the world's most brilliant designers at the Chelsea Flower Show in London.
It recounts an amazing year of planning, frustration, hard work and triumph that followed an impulsive decision to reproduce Jim Fogarty's award-winning garden at the world's most prestigious garden show, the Olympics of horticulture.
They battled the tyrannies of time and distance, the seemingly insurmountable quarantine laws, the weather and the old-fashioned formalities of the Royal Horticultural Society. Finally, Aussie initiative, energy and ingenuity triumphed and their garden, Australian Inspiration, a beautiful blending of native Australian and exotic plants, was acclaimed by public and media alike and honoured by the meticulous RHS judges with a prestigious silver gilt medal.
