I believe the secret to a good gardener is a sensitivety to the needs of the environment, the plants and the animals. Knowing when to prune and what to weed is only part of the picture, just as important is knowing what to keep and leave alone to help sustain natures natural balance in the garden.
Holistic organic management is an ideal to work towards, I am still learning and inspired to better practice, rewarded by the results daily.

s a professional gardener, its a real privilege to work in a customer's little paradise. I often remind my self, far be it for me to add or take away from someone else's vision. Instead, listen carefully to them and offer only the tools needed to expand there own dreams.


Fortunately, fate crossed my path with a young enthusiastic aspiring garden designer Georgina, whose insightful approach to the challenge encourages a new perspective to my work. A mutual love of nature and combined wish for a change in the way we view and manage our gardens which inspired Let Nature Design Your Garden Andy ARealGardener

Georgia

Hi I’m Georgie, I’m a young enthusiastic gardener with big dreams of becoming a garden designer. I dropped out of University to pursue my passion for gardening; I think it all started in the first few years of my life living on a small holding and helping my Mum out with her herb business. Her favourite phrase was “every bit you do is one less thing for me” which pretty much sums up my helpfulness, however over the years it’s help build a base for my work now. Further down the line having dropped out of University in search of a gardening career, I found myself wildly out of my depth and searching for a buoyancy aid. My rescue came in the shape of Floyd, an extremely diverse and experienced gardener. He took me on (because I survived a day of pruning apple trees in the snow) and has imparted to me as much knowledge as I can retain. Although I feel like I will forever be learning from him.
