Rupert's Landscapes

Very exciting as it is the day before we start building the garden for this year's Chelsea Flower Show. We have now created the concrete version of cracked clay in the shape of the droplet.

This is the soft clay version that we heated to make it crack as we wished.

Then we poured the rubber solution that would set to form the mould.

Here the mould is turned out and below looks like a mountain range.

 

Then once the concrete was mixed up with the red soil of the garden and poured onto the mould, we get a concrete version of our clay.

Then we built up the garden as far as we could before putting it all on a truck to take to the show ground at 5:30am tomorrow.

So we will see what tomorrow brings, I hope it doesn't rain.

Keep an eye out for us;
