Crown Your Garden in Glory for The Queen’s Jubilee
13 May 2022
Outdoor living is always at its finest during the summer months and, here at B&M, we’re looking forward to what promises to be a particularly memorable summer. The reason for this is because on 3rd June, come rain or shine, the whole country will join together and enjoy an extra-special bank holiday to celebrate Her Majesty the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
As Elizabeth is the first British monarch to reach such a remarkable milestone, wouldn’t it be fitting to celebrate her 70 years of service by crowning your garden with an enduring feature, which helps you remember the special day? Just imagine a magnificent arbour, elegant arch or stately pergola standing proudly in your garden, for years to come, as a regal reminder of this summer. Or maybe even your very own garden bar to help your family and friends celebrate the happy occasion?
If you like the idea of honouring Queen Elizabeth this way, allow us to humbly show you 4 right-royal garden features to make your own outdoor area fit for a king or queen.
1. The Forest Lyon Garden Arbour Seat 6 x 2m
Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon was, of course, the Queen’s mum, so we’re not stretching a point by telling you that Forest’s Lyon Garden Arbour Seat is fit for a queen.
Pressure treated and supplied with a fabulous 15-year guarantee, this gorgeous garden arbour boasts a sumptuous smooth-planed finish and elegantly sloped back rest, offering you a comfortable throne for two, from which to enjoy the celebrations.
What’s more, three trellis sides give you the opportunity to adorn your new arbour with a beautiful climbing plant and form a completely unique garden feature. Allow us to recommend the ‘Queen Elizabeth’ – a vigorous climbing rose, which produces fragrant pink flowers throughout the summer months.
2. Forest Whitby Wooden Garden Arch 7 x 5m
Whitby Jet was the only ornament worn by Queen Victoria after the death of her beloved Albert, so the North Yorkshire town certainly has its royal connections.
Forest’s Whitby Wooden Arch is actually inspired by the iconic Whalebone Arch on the town’s seafront and makes a stunning focal point in any garden, especially when used to train and support climbing plants.
Crafted from ethically-sourced timber, pressure treated and backed by a fabulous 15-year anti-rot guarantee, this robust wooden arch will still be a much-loved feature in your garden when young Prince George eventually ascends the throne!
3. Forest Ultima Wooden Garden Pergola 8 x 8m
For the ultimate garden feature to mark a once-in-a-lifetime occasion, it has to be Forest’s Ultima Wooden Garden Pergola.
Clean, modern lines and a smooth-planed finish make for a dignified, stately appearance, while pressure-treated wood and a 15-year anti-rot guarantee ensure supreme levels of strength and durability.
With extended legs for secure installation and a roof that’s perfectly designed for trailing plants, this premium pergola kit unquestionably offers you a regal entrance into the favourite area of your garden.
4. Forest Wooden Garden Bar 1.79 x 0.99m
If you’re planning on being at the centre of the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations, here’s an option to make you the most popular person on your street…your very own garden bar!
Whether you choose to use it as a backyard gin palace, garden wine shop or patio public house, one thing’s for sure – the 6 x 3 Forest Wooden Garden Bar will completely transform your outdoor entertainment.
Built from premium shiplap tongue and groove cladding, with a pressure-treated floor, bi-fold shutters and 10-year guarantee, this wooden bar not only makes you the perfect garden party host, it’ll improve your outdoor storage options too.
