A Unique Opportunity to Transform an Unused Space into a Vibrant Garden
We have a rare opportunity to bring a nationally celebrated garden—Drakkar’s Drift—to a permanent home in Edinburgh’s Victoria Park.
Designed by RHS Young Designer Luke Coleman, a resident of Leith, the garden was originally created for the RHS Wentworth Woodhouse Flower Show (read more about the design here: Drakkars Drift designed by Luke Coleman at RHS Flower Show Wentworth Woodhouse, South Yorkshire 2025 / RHS). Now, there’s a chance to relocate it to a disused bowling green in Edinburgh, transforming the space into a beautiful, accessible public garden for everyone to enjoy. But we need your help to make it happen.
