Kazuyuki Ishihara’s ‘Cha No Niwa’ and Ambius at RHS Chelsea Flower Show
We are delighted to extend our warmest congratulations to Kazuyuki Ishihara for the creation of the exquisite Cha No Niwa – Japanese Tea Garden, presented at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2025. This stunning garden was proudly sponsored by Ambius, whose commitment to biophilic design and green wellbeing made them the perfect partner for such a thoughtful, meditative space.

Renowned for his artistry, Kazuyuki Ishihara is one of Japan’s most celebrated garden designers, known for his intricate and deeply atmospheric show gardens. A Chelsea regular, he has won multiple Gold medals and captivated UK audiences for over two decades with his distinctly Japanese yet emotionally universal designs.

This year’s garden, Cha No Niwa, is a tranquil, deeply symbolic space inspired by the traditional Japanese tea ceremony. A place of serenity and introspection, the garden delicately balances natural textures, soft mosses, gravel, stone, and subtle seasonal planting to invite stillness and reflection. Ishihara’s signature attention to harmony and movement made this garden one of Chelsea’s most immersive and elegant highlights.

This partnership between Kazuyuki Ishihara and Ambius is a beautiful example of how world-class garden design, combined with long-term vision, can create spaces that heal, inspire, and endure.

Congratulations once again to Kazuyuki Ishihara, Ambius, and everyone involved in bringing Cha No Niwa to life.
