About, The Craft Gardener

I offer a high-quality garden maintenance service in and around Canterbury.

I gained a National Diploma in Horticulture with Distinction in 2004, following a career in IT. Since qualifying, I've made a career as a gardener, working for the Crown Estate, Pashley Manor Gardens and as Head Gardener to the Bishop of Rochester.

I have an excellent eye for design, and enjoy rejuvenating gardens - sometimes just with a tidy up, or by tweaking the planting, or adjusting the shape of a bed. My particular passion is roses and rose-pruning, and I have delivered workshops on the subject. My time at Pashley also fired my enthusiasm for tulips.
