Celebrating in style! Duchess Kate (née Middleton) stepped out at the Royal Horticultural Society’s Garden Wisley in Surrey, England, on Tuesday, September 10. The royal duchess looked as stunning as always as she celebrated the official opening of her “Back to Nature” playground and garden.

The 37-year-old beauty was dressed for the occasion as she donned a jaw-dropping, seafoam green Emilia Wickstead “Aurora” maxidress that cost a whopping $2,255. The gorgeous creation boasted a bright, pink floral design, while the dress also featured a collared neckline, a matching belt around the waist and buttons down the front.

Kate’s unveiling of her third “Back to Nature” garden — which helps support her efforts in teaching the importance of outdoor playtime — comes just months after she launched the original design at the Chelsea Flower Show this past May. The garden was then moved to Hampton Court Palace for the summer garden festival in July.

Kate even arrived on a farm tractor! The beloved royal was all smiles as she sat alongside a group of kids and celebrity chef Mary Berry, who also happens to be an ambassador for RHS. Kate was even overheard thanking the tractor driver once they arrived, saying, “Thank you, well done. The kiddies loved it!”

So cute!

At the event, Kate gushed about being involved with RHS during a short speech. “As many of you know, I was invited by the RHS to co-design a garden for families and children for this year’s Chelsea Flower Show and Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival,” she said. “It’s been the most amazing experience and I can’t thank the RHS enough for giving me this wonderful opportunity.”

She also stressed the importance of being active, which Kate has been quite vocal about in the past. “As a parent, I have learned just how important it is to foster our children’s development, in all areas, not just physical, as soon as they are born,” she said. “We build the blocks, the foundations, for future success and happiness later in their lives.”

Kate’s new garden at RHS Wisley is an expanded version of the garden that she launched in May with the help of her children, Prince George, 5, Princess Charlotte, 4, and Prince Louis, 1. On Tuesday, Kate admitted that she may not be “as green-fingered as many of you here,” but she created the garden in hopes that she could inspire “children and adults alike to get back to nature and reap the positive mental and physical health benefits that it can bring.”

She did one amazing job!
