What is a Weed
RHS Garden Wisley, Surrey
2023
Here we are at the Royal Horticultural Society’s home, Wisley, set amongst the leafy softness of Surrey. But something stirs amongst the boxed hedges and herbacious borders...
What is a Weed aimed to reset our relationship with weeds, or rather unplanned plants. To show their benefits to a garden and the ecosystem. Cue a riotous pattern and a very specific icon set.
