02 July 2015
The Living Wall we created for the National Grid in Warwick has won in two categories at this year’s Warwick in Bloom awards, including overall winner.
We installed the Living Wall at National Grid’s HQ, making it Europe’s largest living wall at 1,027sq.m, and home to over 97,000 plants of more than 20 different species. The creation is designed to add both to the ecology and bio diversity of the area, and the flowers and blooms also add colour and variety with the seasons.
As well as being announced as the overall winner at Warwick in Bloom, the wall also won in the Commercial Premises category.
