To finish off this series of Objects of Design In The Garden, I bring you (small fanfare) The Garden G-nome. Dan dan daaaaaaaaaan. Yes, gnomes were even allowed to grace the hallowed grounds of Chelsea Flower Show for the event’s centenary this year.

But this is no ordinary gnome. Standing almost four feet high, our wired friend with hi-gloss white powdercoat will grow your greens in his round tummy shelf.

And, just in case you are panicking about having a gnome in the garden, here’s a picture of him fully grown.

He’s about 45 inches high by the way and comes from Crate & Barrel in the USA.
