The Nurture Landscapes Garden
The late artist and plantsman Sir Cedric Morris and his home, Benton End in Suffolk, were the inspiration for Sarah Price’s show garden for Nuture Landscapes. “Cedric Morris was famous for his flower paintings and iris still lifes. You can see that he really understood the plants, but he was also an incredible gardener, who influenced Beth Chatto. He introduced 90 different cultivars of bearded iris,” says Sarah.
Benton End was a bohemian place, where Morris and his partner Arthur Lett-Haines hosted a painting school that tutored the likes of Lucian Freud and Maggi Hambling. Neglected for many years, it is now being restored by the Garden Museum, and Sarah is hoping to transfer some of its naturalistic spirit to Chelsea. “You can see that it had so much love,” she says. “I’m also taking inspiration from the plants that Cedric Morris bred – the moody grey poppies and irises with colours that are really hard to describe, such as copper, strange off-yellows and grey-purples. It’s really exciting to have that palette to compose with.”
