Summary
[edit]Description2022 Tower of London Superbloom 32.jpg |
English: At the Tower of London.
Actually looked much more impressive down amongst the flowers than it does from the public footpath. The Tower of London's Superbloom is the beautiful new naturalistic landscape in the historic moat, marking the Platinum Jubilee year of Her Majesty the Queen. The display will transform the moat into an evolving sea of colours and scents over the course of the summer. It will see the moat – dug and filled with water in the 13th century to defend the famous fortress – become a welcoming new habitat and a green haven for pollinators, insects and seed-eating birds. In the 19th century, the moat was drained and grassed-over and used as a grazing ground for Victorian livestock, and even as allotments during the Second World War. In 1977, the moat was used to mark HM The Queen’s Silver Jubilee with a garden display. The new moat landscape takes inspiration from this long history, bringing diversity of nature back to the Tower’s urban landscape and is the setting for the Tower’s Jubilee tribute. The scheme has been designed by Historic Royal Palaces, working with Grant Associates - Landscape Architects and Lead Design Consultant, and University of Sheffield Professor of Planting Design, Nigel Dunnett – both of whom have extensive expertise in urban horticulture and landscape design. The display follows a one way route along winding willow-lined paths set to a specially commissioned soundscape by composer Erland Cooper with sculptural elements including 'The Nest' designed, built and woven by Spencer Jenkins and metal insect sculptures by Mehrdad Tafreshi. When the display ends, the new natural landscape created to support it will remain in the moat as a permanent platinum Jubilee legacy. |
