How to encourage amphibians and reptiles into your garden


Our campaign, Dragons in your Garden, launched the 2009 RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show. Visitors picked up tips on how to encourage all sorts of amphibians and reptiles into their gardens, whilst wandering amongst the rockeries, ponds and plants.

The garden was designed by students from Kingston Maurward College, Dorchester.  They were asked to come up with designs for gardens that real people could incorporate into their own real gardens. The Dragon's Garden includes elements from designs by students Nicola Shelley and Kei Little - well done to them!

The garden won a bronze award at the show and was a big hit with the public.

Take a look at some photos of the award-winning design. >>>
