Company Description:
By the age of seven and as one of eight children I began cutting grass as a source of pocket money. This naturally, for me, led to garden maintenance and by ten years of age I had completed my first garden. It was a summer job however in a local secondary school alongside a mentoring gardener that thought me so much and fuelled what had by then become a passion rather than a hobby.When I left school I went to study horticulture for 4 years in Co. Meath and Co. Kilkenny, sitting the Royal Horticultural Society examinations externally and working weekends and holidays in various garden centres and landscape companies to build up experience and pay my way.It was however a love of plants that brought me into horticulture and to where I am today. It was a love of writing and horticulture that led to me start my weblog which I hope you enjoy. But it is more the people that I meet through my life with the great outdoors that makes what I do and my life with plants so very worthwhile.
