Two new features at the Eden Project are due to star in BBC Two’s Gardeners’ World programme this evening.

The show is set to feature art work from an award-winning show garden as well as Eden’s new Western Australia Garden in the Mediterranean Biome.

 Leading garden designer Arit Anderson created the climate change-themed ‘Near Future Garden’, which won a gold medal at the RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show last year.

She has brought elements of her Garden to the outdoors at the Eden Project, as a permanent addition to the energy trail along the zig zag path, the main route towards the Biomes.

Planting in this area is dedicated to ancient plants, showing their evolution through time. The Near Future Garden artworks compliment this and add a strong message on climate change, she says.

Arit said: ‘I’m so excited that Near Future Garden has now evolved and become part of the Eden Project communication about climate change.’

Eden’s Director of Interpretation Dr Jo Elworthy said: ‘We were all delighted that Arit was happy for Eden to provide a permanent home for the garden installations. They look stunning and help to communicate the vital stories around climate change and what we can do to help address it.

The episode of Gardeners’ World is also due to feature the new Western Australia Garden in the Mediterranean Biome.

The garden is full of exotics such as grass trees, kangaroo paws and wax flowers.

Eden has collaborated with Kings Park and Botanic Garden in Perth, Western Australia, to recreate the iconic habitats of the south west of the vast state.
