If you?ve ever wanted any inspiration for your home and garden, then the Ideal Home Show is where it?s at. This year, Anglian Home Improvements invited me along to have a good old nosey through the stalls, and whilst you might not think it, there was some great gardening ideas on offer.
In addition the Low Cost Living House (a must-see if you?re thinking about reducing your energy bills or have a plot of land and want to build an eco-flat pack house ? I dare to dream), there are several little show gardens on offer. These are small and compact; so perfect if you?re living in a town or city and environment where space is at a premium. Like all show gardens, it?s important to take away?inspiration?rather than trying to re-make the entire look, as it?s often the case with show gardens that they?re just that ? for show, but not necessarily the most feasible backyard gardens.
I love this idea for maximising space and creating some height and structure in a small garden. The deck isn?t that high that it would intrude on neighbours, especially with some well placed fencing, but it does create space underneath. This could be used for planting shady species ? in this setting they had a small pool with moisture and shade loving ferns ? but it could also be a great garden storage area.

For entertaining purposes, the garden on the left is great. With raised beds, the plants will be more manageable and you?ll need to spend less time?gardening, and more time having friends and family over. Meanwhile, solar panels on your shed or garden office?s roof? Ideal?.I could do with that to power my laptop whilst I?m tapping away writing for the many hours of the day.
Another must-see is Anglian Home Improvement?s Only Fools and Horses stand. If you loved a bit of Del-boy and Rodney, you can see a mock up of their famous flat, along with a modern interpretation. There?s even a chance to get snapped pretending you?re in that famous chandelier scene. So, if you?ve got a chance, head down to Earls Court before April 1st, it?s definitely worth a look?you can spoil yourself to champagne and a fish platter too. 
Cheers, Anglian!
