Design Your Own Cut Flower Garden: A Six-Week Course with Year-Round Support.

Transform your garden into a beautiful, productive space tailored to your unique needs and vision.

Do you love growing and cutting fresh, seasonal flowers but find yourself wondering how to get the very best from your garden? Perhaps you dream of a cutting garden that’s not only efficient and productive but also a beautiful, welcoming, and nourishing space. Creating a garden like this requires careful planning and consideration—every garden is as unique as the gardener tending it. While books and podcasts offer valuable insights, they can’t address the specific needs of you and your garden. That’s where this course comes in.

This Course Is for You If:
You want a cutting garden that’s both productive and beautiful. 

  Learn how to maximize your space, ensuring it's both highly productive and a joy to spend time in.

You seek a garden that serves multiple purposes.  

Whether it's hosting workshops, photo shoots, or family gatherings, or simply providing a therapeutic environment, this course will guide you through creating a garden that fulfils all your needs.

You desire a personalised approach. 

I understand that no two gardens are alike. You'll receive tailored advice to design a space that’s uniquely yours.

My journey into cut flower gardening began over a decade ago at Chatsworth House in Derbyshire. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of designing gardens for private clients, as well as a public garden at Raby Castle, and working as the resident garden designer at the renowned Floret Flower Farm in Washington, USA. My approach balances the beauty of the garden with productivity and efficiency, ensuring that each space serves its unique purpose.

This programme isn’t about following a rigid formula—it’s about understanding your individual needs and aspirations, then guiding you to bring those visions to life. In an era of social media, it’s easy to lose sight of what we truly want for our own spaces. I’m here to help you focus on your own goals and navigate the sometimes overwhelming process of creating a garden that reflects your personal style and needs.
