The country not only secured a Gold medal from the judges but also won the "Best Exhibit in the Pavilion" and the "Best New Design" awards - a first for South Africa. The last time the country competed at the Chelsea Flower Show, described as the Olympic equivalent of the flower landscape design, was in 2019. This was due to funding problems.
