A horticultural advisor answers queries via phone, email or in person to provide accurate horticultural advice and promote gardening to the public
I came to horticulture later in my career so to get up to speed I embarked on a study programme and worked as a volunteer at a garden.
Study for a horticultural qualification and at the same time do some practical horticulture as a job or volunteer. Read widely, and keep up with new scientific developments.
I currently run a gardening school teaching a range of horticultural topics. I'm also a part-time horticultural advisor for the RHS. I enjoy sharing my love of gardening with others and promoting the mental and physical benefits that gardening brings.
The RHS is the UK’s gardening charity, helping people and plants to grow - nurturing a healthier, happier world, one person and one plant at a time.
