Garden designer Antony Henn of the Garden on a Roll, paid a surprising visit to the Cedar Lawn Nursing Home in Romsey.

Henn had met the activities co-ordinator at the Gardners World Garden Show at Beaulieu, who expressed the residents' love for gardening but the difficulty wheelchair-bound residents faced.

Responding to the initiative, Mr Henn arrived with a Vegtrug, garden on a roll biodegradable planting plan, peat-free compost and a variety of plants.

The residents were able to match the plants with the letters on the planting plan, leaving them delighted.
