Princess Anne Wears Her Late Mother Queen Elizabeth's Signature Earrings in Touching Tribute

The two-acre garden includes a wildlife pond, native planting and a viewing platform, with public access set to begin on April 27.

  • On Tuesday, April 21, Princess Anne officially opened the Queen Elizabeth II Garden in London's Regent's Park, marking what would have been her late mother's 100th birthday.
  • Created by The Royal Parks and HTA Design, the two-acre site transforms previously inaccessible brownfield land into a "tranquil, fully accessible place for reflection in the heart of London," featuring wildflower meadows and native hedgerows.
  • Blacksmiths Ian Kebby and Ian Thackray secretly added a corgi statue to the viewing platform's design; upon noticing it, Princess Anne "chuckled loudly," saying her mother loved gardens "because the dogs needed to go out."
  • The site welcomes visitors starting April 27 as part of wider centenary celebrations, while King Charles III and Queen Camilla visited the King's Gallery exhibition and hosted a birthday party at Buckingham Palace.
  • During the unveiling, the Princess Royal reflected on gardens' historical evolution during wartime, calling the new project a "lovely evolution of that whole voyage of garden design.
