If anyone was thinking of going to the RHS Hampton Court Flower Show this week, for some outdoor living inspiration, you really shouldn't bother. Those perfect, lah-di-dah gardens are so old hat. The insane display below shows exactly how the smartest big earners are keeping it real and relatable in today's brokie-filled world.
There's no fancy outdoor bar or garden water feature but
indoors they have a classy water cooler station with fully-stocked glassware trolley
, just a few dinky dot steps away. #refreshmentgoals
Sure, there's no decorative landscaping or creative touches outside either, but there are some jangly beads displayed on the dining table for aesthetic interest, doubling up as a makeshift camera stand to give the impression that they can't afford a proper stand because nobody likes a show-off.
They're not ones to brag but all hard landscaping is real, authentic marble and the lawn is hand-crafted from the finest jade - each blade specially shaped and softened to give the illusion of textured tufts of AstroTurf...because, well, wealth whispers.
No concessions made with the garden
ornaments though. This lush paradise comes complete with its own full-size, crying, talking, sleeping, walking, living gnome...in a beanie. (In Dubai)
You probably won't find Monty Don singing this horticultural hot-spot's praises but, bizarrely, you
will find a
Mumma DonDon, who no doubt thinks that this pigeon
tit-covered patio has the aroma of the sweetest roses that her brown-nosing conk ever did smell and awards it "Best In ShitShow".
Aspirational garden living on a £10k a day/week budget. How the other half lives...
