Staff at Royal Cornwall Hospital’s Eden Ward have thanked the Eden Project for brightening up their waiting rooms with beautiful plants.

Eden has a special relationship with the women’s ward at Treliske since patients and staff decided to rename it after the project in 2015.

Eden has donated pictures to display in the ward and commissioned an artist to create a mural inspired by the Rainforest Biome for the day room.

Now Eden horticulturists Emma Gunn and Riyah Snow along with Chief Executive Gordon Seabright have delivered an array of plants to decorate two of the ward’s waiting rooms which are often used by patients awaiting surgery.
