I was there for the very first time yesterday (accompanying my wife - who's the member of the RHS - as a guest.

I spotted these two item though you may be interested.

A chain bull !

A water feature tree!

and a tree that has water running through the various branches to the leaves. I wasn't sure what the metal was they had used.

Cheers

Love the bull!!

My boss has a couple of those trees and dragonflies. They are made of copper and they work harden, I have to solder some leaves back on a couple of times a year!

This is the guy who did the bull, he has one of a horse jumping made of horse shoes....very impressive.

Fantastic. Yes the guy who done the bull is local and a friend used to work with him, eye for shape and design.

There is a chain Statue of Liberty in the bar of the Crowne Plaza Lille it must be about 2M tall, I will have to see if I took any pictures of it on the phone.
