About this episode

Matt Keightley discusses his garden designs and the launch of his app Space Lift for optimizing outdoor spaces.

We’re joined by Award-winning landscape gardener, Matt Keightley, talking about his showcases at this year’s Chelsea Flower show. In addition to his inspiring garden designs, he’s also launching anew APP called Space Lift - all about helping people get the best out of their outdoor space. Whether in the country or urbania, a ‘garden' should be a haven that promotes positive experiences, which goes for your dogs and cats too. The app is a simple tool to help everyone from choosing appropriate plants to optimising the space available. It aims to help Brits who a re keen to create the perfect outdoor space, in fact, in some research Matt discovered that a third of Brits (35%) dream of a calming sanctuary, while others prioritise family-friendly spaces (27%), outdoor dining (23%) and entertaining areas (22%). As warmer weather arrives, over half (56%) planning to dust off the shovel and shears this upcoming May bank holiday.
