Best moment in Horticulture? Meeting and working with Fergus Garret at Great Dixter
My team and I at Wisley look after the formal areas, which include horticultural highlights such as the herbaceous Mixed Borders and Rose Gardens. I studied Horticulture at Writtle College, Essex and joined the RHS after graduating in 2010. During my time at Wisley I have had the privilege to have cared for Battleston Hill and its woody collections, followed by the Country Garden and the Mixed Borders. My horticultural interests include; Rhododendrons, woodland plants, garden history and wildflower meadows. Some of my favourite gardens (other than Wisley, of course!) include; Great Dixter, Sissinghurst, Beth Chatto’s and the lost gardens of Heligan. Best moment in Horticulture? Meeting and working with Fergus Garret at Great Dixter, a truly inspirational person and an amazing place.
