In 2005, James Furse-Roberts was invited to collaborate with the sculptor Mark Merer on a living sculpture for the Glastonbury Festival. The final design was three earth columns, the tallest of which was 6m high. These were each topped with a 5m Tamarix tree and covered in turf kept alive with an integral irrigation system. The piece was well received by the festival goers and was featured in Gardens Illustrated magazine.
