Born in Nagasaki, Japan in 1958, at 22 Kazuyuki Ishihara studied the Japanese art of flower arrangement, Ikebana. Inspired by the flower shops of Paris, he began selling flowers on the street before opening his own flower shops, followed by his company and gardens. Bringing elements of Japanese garden design like stone gardens, bonsai and moss into his unique world style of landscaping, his designs have been highly acclaimed at the Chelsea Flower Show in the UK since 2004. Renowned as the pinnacle of international gardening shows, Kazuki Ishihara has won an unprecedented total of 12 gold medals between 2006 and 2023. The late Queen Elizabeth II declared him to be a “Magician of Greenery” after visiting the Chelsea Flower Show and seeing his work.
