Bloom

Our founder was a pioneer of the concept of zoo-led conservation, planting the seed that zoos should help combat the threats faced by wildlife worldwide. Since then, Gerry’s ideas have blossomed into the global conservation organisation we know today, working to save species from extinction here in Jersey and at our rewilding sites around the world. 

Inspired by Gerry’s story and passion, and designed by internationally acclaimed artist Stuart Semple, Bloom is a colourful meadow made up of thousands of flower sculptures, celebrating both the past 100 years and looking ahead to the next 100. Featuring six of Gerry’s favourite flowers, each sculpture represents his enduring legacy and how one person’s achievements can flourish into something far greater and wide-reaching.
