The Duke of Edinburgh delighted young gardeners during a special visit to the HGS Kids Gardening Club.
Last week he praised the thriving community garden created by local children, parents, carers and volunteers.
The visit, which was shared in a touching video by the London Garden Society, showed Prince Edward chatting and helping them plant flowers.
The Duke seemed genuinely impressed with the group’s achievements and took the time to hear about their work and encourage the young gardeners.
The flourishing garden has been built thanks to the efforts of more than 150 children and volunteers.
Following the royal visit, Dominic Rose reflected on the unforgettable experience in a LinkedIn post, revealing how much the day meant to everyone involved.
“When I founded the club two years ago, the first thing on the children’s wish list was a royal visit, and I don’t think any of us really believed this would happen.
“It takes a lot to move me to tears, but I think the look of utter delight on everyone’s faces as we said goodbye to the Duke was what finally did it.”
