Join me on June 17th 2009 to visit Barnsdale Garden, the home of the late TV Gardener Geoff Hamilton (pictured above). Contact Buckingham Garden Centre on 01280 827910 for further details. Limited number of places are available so early booking is recommended.
Horticulturist, expert, broadcaster, pod caster and garden writer invites fellow bloggers to discuss gardening issues on this site.

- My career in horticulture began when I left school in 1979 and joined Rochford’s Houseplants as an apprentice. After completing college in Lancashire, I embarked on a career in the retail world spending over 12 inspiring years at All-In-One Garden Centre near Rochdale. A career change in 1994 took me into gardening journalism and broadcasting, initially working as a sub-editor on Amateur Gardening, before launching Gardens Ideas magazine as well as editing Water Gardener and the garden website Gardening365. I continue to contribute to a host of consumer and in recent year’s trade publications as well as co-authoring a book. Over the past four years, I’ve returned to the garden centre trade as Plant Publicity Manager at Buckingham Garden Centre & Nurseries. We are developing the website and the social network sites as this is important in linking the two. I would describe myself as a hands-on gardener with a passion for plants, I really enjoy sharing my knowledge and I’m a contributor to local BBC radio for over 22 years. I've been involved as a judge from 2008-2010 in the prestigious Horticulture Week Retail Awards.
