Cleary Gottlieb: Time for Creativity Garden at Chelsea Flower Show 2026

The Cleary Gottlieb: Time for Creativity is a Gold Medal Winning Garden at Chelsea Flower Show 2026.

The garden is meant to be a phone-free environment, as it explores what can be achieved while not spending time looking at a screen, whether it’s a phone or a computer. The walk-through glasshouse is filled with paint, books, and fabrics, inspiring its visitors to choose a creative hobby instead. At the end of the path, visitors can find a secluded seating area to let creativity flow. The floor of the glasshouse is covered in Oak Setts, while the path is laid with Somerset Buff Selfbinda and Durlston Stableyard Cobbles. The Bespoke Langton Features Boulders, including a small boulder with a sawn top, a bird bath and a water feature filled with Cotswold Pebbles, are the focal point of the garden.
