Designer seeks Holy Grail with Da Vinci Code garden

FIRST the book, then the movie, now the garden. Designer David Domoney is vying for one of the prizes at Chelsea Flower Show with a garden inspired by Dan Brown’s international bestseller The Da Vinci Code.

“Let’s hope we can find the Holy Grail with the judges,” Mr Domoney said yesterday beside his small show garden which is dominated by a replica of the glass pyramid outside the Louvre Museum in Paris that figures in the novel’s opening.

“We have even hidden codes on the leaves of some of the plants which you can only find with an ultra-violet lamp. I think we all love this idea of hidden treasures and conspiracy theories,” he said.
