The Queen's Garden

The Queen's Garden with the Byward Tower behind. 
As part of the Superbloom event, this area has been planted to evoke the Coronation gown worn by the Queen, with a glass crown and glass national emblems. 

"A specially designed 'Queen's Garden' has been created as part of the Tower of London Superbloom. The concept for the garden has been developed by Andrew Grant and James Clarke of Grant Associates, the lead designers for the Superbloom project. Drawing on the colours, shapes and motifs used by Hartnell for the coronation gown it is intended to evoke the scalloped tiers of embroidery which feature on the gown’s silk skirt. 
12 cast glass forms representing the national emblems featured in Hartnell’s embroidered design, including the thistle of Scotland, the Australian wattle and Canadian maple leaf rise from the garden. In the centre, sits a glass crown, a reminder of the Tower of London’s ancient role as home of the Crown Jewels; the sacred regalia used in Her Majesty’s coronation, and those of previous British monarchs. Specially created for the Queen’s Garden by glass artist Max Jacquard, these hand-crafted artworks will catch the light and provide an elegant visual spectacle."
