Pro Landscaper April 2022

With longer, lighter days, spring has finally arrived! Along with our April issue of Pro Landscaper – a Manchester Special.
Our Special discusses all the latest developments in and around the city of Manchester. From the RHS Garden Bridgewater’s long journey to opening, the Castlefield Viaduct’s regeneration – set to boast an elevated park by Summer this year, to finding out all about idverde’s maintenance and sustainable goals at Manchester City Football Club training grounds. It’s jampacked!
In our Let’s Hear it From this month, we speak to the BBC’s Your Garden Made Perfect newest addition, Oliver Bond, about how he ended up on the show and how he will be using his exposure to promote garden design.
And, speaking of perfect gardens, Hever Castle’s head gardener Neil Miller discusses why there is huge attraction to the gardens. He dives into the rich history and all the detail about what goes on behind the scenes.
In our IQ section, we include a Special on artificial grass. Discussing its controversy, offering, and popularity, we ask suppliers, landscapers, and trade associations BALI, SGD, and the APL for their thoughts on the product – It’s certainly an interesting read.
Have you noticed Pro Landscaper’s new look? The new, matte and more compact design of Pro Landscaper was launched for this issue, and it’s just as recyclable as before!
