Perfect Mother's Day Gift from the Neil Hamilton Collection

Neil "Capability" Hamilton AKA world’s cleverest man and renowned horticulturist underpinned his commitment to recycling when unveiling a teasing glimpse of his soon to be launched spring horticultural collection, Building on his past success of turning normally discarded off cuts into must have essentials the great man excelled even his own exceptional standards, when mixing boho chic passant with noveau cosmopolitan urbanism. Showing that art and engineering can co exist the virtuoso demonstrated his percipience with the following typically humble description…

“Engineering excellence, contemporary art or just plain horticulture………the plant appreciated the tight extrusion tolerances ensuring a water tight seal when the end cap was fitted. The required IP rating (ingress protection) was achieved by ensuring a low Ra value (surface roughness) together with optimum squareness and positioning of features (aided by the use of a ruby tipped probe)"
