HTA have teamed up with Pictorial Meadows to build a wild flower wall at this year’s Planted Festival. The idea was to build a wall that is beautifully wild and diverse whilst supporting biodiversity and this is is something Pictorial Meadows are experts in providing us with their Botanical Skyline Meadow.
After the festival, the meadow will be rehomed as part of the Beddington estate, Islington.
Here’s a list of all the species in our flower wall:
