Located on the concourse of the Wythenshawe Forum, Overgrown was created by: Lizzie Rose Chapman. "The design for this Bee was inspired by pollination, the bees' love of flowers and Wythenshawe itself, Manchester's original Garden City. You are encouraged to follow the Bees on their trails and explore Wythenshawe's variety of green spaces. At the Edible Transport Interchange, anyone can help themselves to the herbs, vegetables and fruit grown here, then simply throw them into a pot to create a delicious evening meal." It is sponsored by Wyth Love from Wythenshawe. "This beautiful Bee started its life on the Forum Concourse, in her very own garden, with smaller, but equally amazing, learning Bees. Once the Summer has ended, she will fly to her forever hive, in Wythenshawe's Edible Transport Interchange."
