In this episode, Gardens Illustrated staff writer, Alys Hurn, chats to Kate about her New West End Garden at this year’s show to find out a little more about the technology she will use in her design and how she intends to create a pocket of calm in the heart of London.

It's really about creating good, little oasis in the city that are a positive space in terms of what they give back to the public.
