From the steppe plants of the world to better urban landscapes for the world, Anna Andreyeva
Anna Andreyeva is Russian-born UK- based garden designer, plantswoman, and mother. She is currently pursuing a horticultural and ecological research PhD focused on perennial steppe plants around the world for green roofs and general urban planting in a changing world under British plantsman Nigel Dunnett in Sheffield, England.
Anna has designed the plantings for many public spaces including the so-called 'Highline' of Moscow prior to moving to the UK four years ago.
In 2022, she collaborated on the planting plans for the “What Does Not Burn” garden, symbolizing the on-going war in Ukraine following the invasion by Russia, and reflecting Ukraine’s culture and traditions at the RHS Hampton Court flower show. Sponsored by the GLAU (Guild of Landscape Architects of Ukraine) and Studio Toop, the garden won an award for Global Impact.
Anna joins Cultivating Place to share more about gardens and plants as commons grounds and art forms to help meet the challenges ahead.
