Garden design student Sarah Stewart and a team from Scotland’s Rural College in Edinburgh won the People’s Choice Award at Gardening Scotland with their garden called Home.

This was part of a new feature called College Street introduced to highlight upcoming talent at the 20th Gardening Scotland show.

Home was a garden of two halves, with one side depicting the rivers, lochs and sea around Scotland and the other the country’s moors, hills and glens.

Sarah Stewart said: “As a team, we were extremely proud of our garden and were delighted to receive the Silver Gilt award. To then go on and win the People’s Choice was just amazing.

“As garden designers, this award means so much as it comes from votes cast by future potential clients. Hearing all the lovely comments and feedback from them throughout the show was fantastic and quite overwhelming and really made the whole experience worthwhile.”
