‘Drop the labels and design for everyone’ is the advice of garden designer, writer and television presenter, Mark Lane. Indeed, it’s almost his mantra. We should sit up and listen to what Mark has to say, not least because he has direct experience of the immediate and long-term benefits that gardening can bring to our physical and mental health.
