I joined the company in October 2021 and quickly recognised everyone’s passion for going above and beyond to offer solutions to customers’ needs and make their vision a reality. As the Front of House Coordinator, I receive lots of new enquiries, it’s the first step to building long-term relationships with our customers and provides a wonderful opportunity to share our expertise and knowledge of plants and flowers.
The benefits of nature and plants have become very evident during the pandemic, creating beautiful spaces is now a priority for many clients as they focus on the wellbeing of their employees in the workplace. Having a personal love of plants and flowers I can’t think of a better place to work!

Floristry DesignerHaving been brought up in the family business and the benefits of biophilia since my childhood, I am passionate about the important role that plants have in our lives. In my life as a plantsman I thrive on the limitless journey of discovery; each living plant organism being created unique and individual.
I spent several years working for a native plants nursery in New Zealand, which included travelling the country, ecologically sourcing indigenous seeds.
I am responsible for our Nursery’s operations, facilities and stock, and mobilising new larger accounts - a busy role which is essential for the smooth running of our operations. I also look after our small flock of Hebrideans at our head office in Henham - a primitive sheep breed, which graze our meadows.
