Cork link to Chelsea Flower Show gold

A young garden designer has become the youngest gold medal winner ever at the Chelsea Flower Show with the help of an Irish-based sculptor and engineering company.

Hugo Bugg, 26, received the top accolade from the Royal Horticultural Society for his graceful Waterscape Garden, sponsored by the Royal Bank of Canada.

Bugg struck gold with his environmentally conscious rain garden that incorporates concrete-lined raised beds and a rusted steel walkway.
