Hedgehogs Street Garden.
Hedgehogs Street Garden.This year's Hampton Court Palace Flower Show July 8th - 13th will feature the world's first Hedgehog Street Garden. Designed by Tracy Foster for the British Hedgehog Preservation Society (BHPS) in conjunction with the People's Trust for Endangered Species (PTES), the garden will demonstrate just how easy it is to create a safe environment for hedgehogs.
Telegraph article I can't get there but would love to see photos if anyone else does.

Re: Hedgehogs Street Garden.Thanks Julie I missed it, but as the Hedgehog Street Garden won a gold medal I'm sure we'll get to see it again.
There is a photo of Monty Don being filmed holding a hedgehog on the People's Trust for Endangered Species facebook page Here ..so I expect it will be on TV again.
Re: Hedgehogs Street Garden.Great to see publicity and awareness increasing.

Re: Hedgehogs Street Garden.We took a stroll down Hedgehog Street today and took some piccies.
Hidden amongst the undergrowth is a hedgehog box with a glass lid. A bog standard hedgehog box with some camoflage. A modern hedgehog friendly garden. There is a hedgehog access hole in the wall and the water is very shallow with low edges so they can paddle in and out of it. Hope you enjoy them Dom & Ali Ali Woks My World
Re: Hedgehogs Street Garden.Great photos Dom and Ali, hope you enjoyed your day.
