Clive Johnson-Cooper, winner of Gardeners’ World ‘Garden of the Year’ 2023, chats about his jungle-themed, urban garden in Stockbridge, Edinburgh. Clive has created a garden from scratch and the results of his passion, in his tiny, courtyard space, won him the Judges’ Choice vote. Listening to Clive talk about the creation of his garden and his bold planting choices is nothing short of inspiring.
Clive had his fingers crossed to win the People's Choice vote too, and since the episode aired he did go on to scope that award too!
