作为城市花园设计的赞助者，Elspeth女士创立了My Garden School并与欧式城市花园设计界最顶尖的八位人物合作，来完成Luciano Giobbilei项目。
第一位 Richard Reynolds
Richard Reynolds倡导“园艺游击战术“，他鼓励人们对抗那些在社区内违规违法建设的园艺项目，同时鼓励人们去充分利用那些被忽视或被废弃的公共场地内的栽培植物，让这些地区重新找回绿意。通过与Richard的攀谈，Elspeth意识到他是一个对“园艺游击战术”充满热情和激情的一名战士，并想用自己的这份热情来改变世界。
第二位 Noel Kingsbury
Noel是多年生植物研究领域的佼佼者，在城市环境的研究上，他尝试改变人们对特定空间的植物种类和密集度的看法。并和著名的荷兰园艺师Piet Oudolf合作共同发表了“Planting: A New Perspective”并由英媒体称为“一个园艺界开创性的时刻”
第三位 Michael King
Michael King是一名住在阿姆斯特丹的地道英国人，同样也是多年生植物研究领域中不可或缺的人才。他的一些概念被运用到了Lurie Garden项目之中——一个建立在地下停车场上的屋顶花园。该项目使用了多种多年生植物像是藿香，刺芹属和紫锥花属的植物来体现美国中部地区多年生植物的特色。
第四位 Tony Heywood and Alison Condie
这俩个扎根在伦敦帕丁顿的设计者主要从事园艺装置艺术，因为他们认为这项事业可以加深他们对园艺的认知和对“园艺标准”这一概念的扩展。Heywood在园艺学和人类学的专业背景加上Condie在植物学和动物学领域丰富的经验，总是可以迸发出一些关于景观和自然的新概念。
第五位Lucian Giubbilei
Giubbilei的当代古典主义风格对全世界的城市花园设计有着深远的影响，尤其是在西方国家的一些城市。有规律且简洁的线条和尽量少的色彩渲染带来了一种特殊的时尚感或者说是地道欧式风。他的照明设计是无可挑剔的，园景建筑工程中树木和植物的摆放都考虑到了光影的因素。
第六位 John Brookes MBE
John Brookes是二十世纪最顶尖的的景观建筑设计师，他是一位真正了解花园空间意义的人。2004年，鉴于其在园林设计和园艺服务上的表现，John被授予了MBE的称号。他还是一名成功的作家，他的代表著作The Room outside发表于60年代，并改变了景观设计建筑师处理设计的方法。
第七位 Piet Oudolf
Piet Oudolf是当今最有名的植栽设计师，虽然他生活在荷兰，但是他的作品却遍布世界各地，像是纽约高线公园、芝加哥千禧公园以及伦敦奥运场地公园的再开发。但是对于一个城市花园的设计者而言，最重要的应该是将日益变化的园艺设计和植栽设计融入到城市花园设计过程中。Oudolf则用他自己独有的观点“新多年生植物运动”或“新自然主义浪潮”很好的诠释了城市花园中植栽设计的特色。
第八位 Nigel Dunnett
Nigel Dunnett具有较强的园艺学和生态学背景。他最知名的设计是伦敦中心湿地花园的切尔西花展，当然，还有伦敦奥利匹克公园。Nigel Dunnett的设计理念是：“我做的很多工作都是种植设计范围内的，你如何感知你的设计，这个交互过程是非常感性的。种植设计并不单纯是植物设计，也包括生态学，和美学的知识。”

Urban gardening is on the increase. And no more so than in Europe, where some remarkable talents are driving many of the world’s urban gardening trends.
Urban Gardens sponsor, Elspeth Briscoe, founder of MyGardenSchool (formerly with eBay & Skype), shares her thoughts with us on the top leading lights in European urban garden design. MyGardenSchool, the world’s first virtual gardening school offers online gardening classes in a wide range of subjects ranging from garden design to edible gardening.
Richard Reynolds
Richard Reynolds leads the charge for guerrilla gardening. He is waging a stealth war against the neglect of public space, taking over these disused spaces to grow plants. He teaches people about the art of seedbombing, encouraging them to get involved in illicit gardening projects in their community and defy the status quo (in a nice way). Richard leads troupes of people across the globe to plant up any patch of orphaned land they can find. By some kind of serendipity, I met Richard before he set up his blog and resources website, Guerrilla Gardening. Weirdly, he was working in advertising when I was working at eBay. Even then, we somehow struck up a conversation about gardening. He is a one off–totally engaging and passionate about changing the world through guerrilla gardening.
Noel Kingsbury
Noel is one of the kings of perennial planting. For the urban environment, he is beginning to change the way people think about the types and the density of plants they use in specific spaces. Noel co-authors with famous Dutch plantsman Piet Oudolf, known for planting the High Line in New York, Chicago ‘s Millenium Park, amongst many other acclaimed global projects (see below.) The two experts’s latest collaboration, Planting: A New Perspective, has been billed by the British press as “a groundbreaking moment in horticulture.” Noel Kingsbury also shares this revolutionary perspective on perennial planting through a four week online horticulture course which runs monthly.
Michael King
Michael King, an Englishman living in Amsterdam, is another unequivocal king of perennial planting, having coined the term, ‘perennial meadows.’ And don’t be deceived–this style of planting does not necessarily have to be in grandiose sized spaces. It’s more of a concept. The Lurie Garden in downtown Chicago is a good example. This small park is nothing more than a roof garden above an underground car park. The idea is to make an emotional connection with the once extensive grass prairies of mid-America by growing wide drifts of native Panicum grasses and flowering perennials such as Agastache, Eryngium, and Echinacea. However, the intention is not to recreate a prairie, only to recreate the feeling of one. It’s a little known fact that Michael is also a tulip expert. One of the top experts in the world on planting with grasses, he too co-author a book with Piet Oudolf, Gardening With Grasses. King is the first person in the world to run an online course on planting with grasses.
Tony Heywood and Alison Condie
Based in Paddington, London, Tony Heywood and Alison Condie describe their work as ‘horticultural installation art.’ I love this kind of stuff, because like it or not, it challenges our perceptions of gardens and extends our concept of “normal.”We need people like Tony and Alison to enable design to evolve. Their area of interest principally concerns new ways of engaging with and representing landscape and nature. The combination of Heywood’s background in horticulture and anthropology, and Condie’s experience in botany and zoology, has resulted in the formulation of a unique series of art works which are often hard to classify.Their practice crosses many genres including land art, sculpture, horticulture, painting, video and performance. In their final realization, individual works often synthesize elements from all of these disciplines. Their works have been shown both nationally and internationally and vary in scale from large-scale public commissions covering many acres to smaller gallery-based work including even micro landscapes in petri dishes.
Lucian Giubbilei
I met Lucian Giubbilei a couple of years ago. Giubbilei’s contemporary classic style has influenced the design of urban gardens all over the world, especially in cities of the western world. His disciplined clean lines and use of minimal color results in a distinctively stylish, somewhat European look. His lighting is incredible. The positioning of trees and the planting amongst the hard landscaping are all designed around light and shade. Interestingly, he was recently looking at a project in Morocco where he was interested in moving on from his minimalist and monochromatic style. Look out for color from Luciano in the future. However his style evolves, I guarantee it will be beautiful.
John Brookes MBE
Landscape architect, John Brookes, is one of the top designers of the 20th Century. He really understands the meaning of garden rooms. In 2004, John was awarded an MBE (The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) for garden design and horticulture services, as well as the Award of Distinction by the American Association of Professional Landscape Designers. John is also a successful and prolific author. His iconic book The Room Outside, first published in the 60s, changed the way landscape architects everywhere approached design.In addition to The Room Outside, John has written 24 best selling books and countless newspaper and magazine articles. He lectures on garden design in UK and overseas and also runs a design school in Argentina.
John offers three online garden design courses, giving students ranging from beginners to acclaimed designers a once in a lifetime opportunity to have their designs touched by the hands of a landscape design pioneer. There is one course specifically tailored to urban gardening design enthusiasts from across the globe who are designing smaller gardens.
Piet Oudolf
Piet Oudolf is the most famous planting designer in the world today. He lives in Holland, but his work spans the globe to include The New York High Line, Chicago Lurie Garden in Millennium Park, and Oudolf is developing Queen Elizabeth II Park on the London Olympics site. It doesn’t get much more high profile than that. But more importantly for urban gardeners, is how this translates to our day to day garden designs and plantings. And it does. Oudolf is continuously driven by an intense and nurturing concern for the future of gardening. Some of the planting styles inspired by Oudolf like the “new perennial planting movement” or “new wave naturalism,” are a new way of thinking about planting, whatever the size or urban aspect of the garden.
Nigel Dunnett
Nigel Dunnett has a strong horticulture and ecology background. His most well known designs have been the Royal Bank of Canada at the London Wetland Center, gardens for The Chelsea Flower Show, and of course, London Olympic Park. Nigel describes his garden design philosophy like this: “A lot of the work I do is planting within a design context. How you experience that and how you go through it and interact with the process can be a very emotional thing. The philosophy beyond that, of course, is about sustainability and about minimizing water, fertilizers, and maintenance. Planting should also be done to enhance biodiversity, supporting pollinating insects and such. So in the end, it is the dynamic combination between the aesthetics and the natural processes.”
