Kind Words

Rachael was great! I hired her to help me replant some outdoor plants - she was knowledgeable and very friendly, and able to identify the best places for these plants based on the drainage in my garden and the amount of sunlight they’d need and get. She also gave me tips for caring for them more effectively. Highly recommend!

About Me

My parents were keen gardeners and I was raised to have an appreciation for growing fresh food and flowers. Now, I’ve come full circle and use plants to make gardens soothing places of respite in a busy city.

My training with the RHS at Capel Manor leant heavily on the environmental impacts that we can all make in our gardens, negative and positive. If you’d like to learn about practices you can implement to make your garden more wildlife/pollinator-friendly and more water-wise, even if you want no other service, give me a call to book a consultation.

Most of my clients are in East London: Walthamstow, Highams Park, Woodford, Chingford, and Leyton, but I’m happy to make exceptions for a good garden project!
