The sculptor behind Haywards Garden Sculpture
Tessa Hayward
Tessa has been making natural material Sculptures, to commission for the past 20 years. Her clients include The Royal Historic Palaces, National Trust, Wildlife Service Ireland, and Natural Resources Wales.
Using this experience In 2023 Tessa decided to set up Haywards Garden. She now runs a workshop making beautiful and practical pieces that are designed to support wildlife and bring colour, structure and interest to your garden.
Tessa still takes on a limited number of commissions for natural-material and steel sculpture. Each commission is developed around the client, the space and the story behind the piece.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
HaywardsGarden sculptures are designed to be both beautiful garden art and useful features for wildlife. Bee and butterfly water stations provide shallow drinking places for bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects, while larger wildlife water bowls can provide water for birds.
The water stations can be filled by rain or topped up with a watering can. Adding pebbles, stones or other landing places gives insects a safe place while drinking.
Place water stations close to flowers so pollinators can find them easily. Individual stems can also be grouped together or dotted through a flower bed, creating several small water sources throughout your garden.
-
Haywards garden sculptures are made in steel. Depending on the design, pieces have either a natural rust finish or are hand-painted with outdoor finishes.
Rusted steel develops its own natural patina over time, giving each sculpture an individual appearance. .
HaywardsGarden packaging is also designed to reduce plastic, using recyclable paper and cardboard wherever possible.
-
The best size depends on where you want to use your water station and the amount of space available.
Smaller bee water stations have cups around 4–5cm wide with individual stems around 45cm tall. They work well near the house, in pots and planters, window boxes, balconies and smaller gardens.
Larger wildlife water bowls have wider cups and taller stems, making them more of a feature in a larger flower border or wildlife garden.
Many HaywardsGarden water stations have individual stems, so you can arrange the cups yourself rather than having everything at one fixed height. Group them together to create a feature, or spread them through a flower bed to provide several small drinking places for pollinators.
-
