A love of plants, nature and design led me to a career change around six years ago.  I studied Garden Design for three years at Capel Manor College, Enfield and qualified in 2023 with a Diploma.  Continuing to amass considerable plant knowledge over the past ten years or so, I relish sourcing the more unusual plant and practice growing them in my own garden, creating year-round interest.  I love to grow my own, too, from seed, cuttings and other types of propagation.  Planting for wildlife, especially pollinators, is at the heart of my personal mission; aiming to spread the love for wildlife far and wide and to green-up our country one garden at a time.

Volunteering roles for the Hertfordshire Hardy Plant Society hertshps.com and The Serge Hill Project thesergehillproject.co.uk fulfil my yearning to continue learning and to surround myself with plant-lovers alike.
