Meldrum Academy s pocket garden won a special commendation from the judges.
Children, from as young as three, were challenged to design a colourful and sustainable garden that could feature at the Scottish Gardens Show at Scone Palace in late May.
Sadly, the show was cancelled due to Covid restrictions. However, the entrants grew and built their gardens to be showcased online.
Meldrum Academy submission – Harry’s Haven – features a pond in a bucket, space for insects, and bird feeders.
The judges commented: “This is an excellent achievement. The idea of a pond in a bucket is really well done and the garden has a soft, natural feel with plastic containers cleverly disguised. The plants are well chosen and there is a bit of room for them to grow too.

Carpe Diem House brings together the best of modern living, period details and a private, verdant setting at the centre of the village of Daviot.
Formerly the manse house to Daviot Church, Carpe Diem House, in Daviot, Aberdeenshire, is situated in a central but private position within the village. The property, which is for sale through Savills at an asking price of £550,000, was originally built in about 1798, but was sensitively extended and modernised by the current owners.
These days, it offers some 4,000sq ft of space that combine modern family living with beautiful period features, such as sash and case windows, working shutters and striking staircases.
