Rhayader-based Artmetal collaborates with Dobbies for RHS Chelsea Flower Show
The world’s most iconic horticultural event, the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, is back in May for 2022, and the UK’s leading garden centre retailer, Dobbies, is set to mark its return with an inspirational stand that will showcase how to embrace your own green sanctuary as well as sustainable gardening solutions.
Rhayader-based, Artmetal is collaborating with Dobbies with the creation of a water feature for the stand. Artmetal is a family-run company specialising in bespoke designer metal work. Both a traditional and contemporary blacksmiths, their creations are constructed in a modern fabrication workshop.
Following its five-star award winning trade stand in 2021, Dobbies’ 2022 garden will highlight a broad spectrum of ideas for different spaces, reinforcing the team’s authority in plants and gardening. The stand will showcase how to make the most of your green space, blurring the lines between indoors and out, the importance of grow your own for both wellbeing and sustainability, and innovative ways to introduce plants into alternative areas of the home.
Adam Barrett from Artmetal said: “It’s a great opportunity to work alongside Dobbies and create a piece for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Water features are a timeless feature for any garden, bringing tranquil sound, visual appeal, and the chance for wildlife to benefit too.”
Marcus Eyles, Horticultural Director at Dobbies said: “This year, our RHS Chelsea Flower Show stand is all about creating a green sanctuary, and the importance of embracing nature in a sustainable fashion. Artmetal complement our approach.
“The garden has a variety of components that will not only showcase our team’s authority and expertise but aims to inspire people to create their own sanctuaries, with a plant-centric focus that both looks impressive and is good for the environment too. Thanks to the Artmetal team for supporting our vision.”
