Although the internet is a great source of knowledge and books are plentiful, sometimes there can be either too much information or not enough and it can be frustrating to get to grips with the horticultural techniques.
Set within your own garden, we will spend the session working directly in your garden and dealing with any and all specific techniques that you wish to learn. I will bring all the tools needed and together we will set to the task and hopefully you will come away with the skills and knowledge to get you gardening with confidence in the future.
Some of the skills I teach are:
Pruning - winter and summer
Training of climbing plants and supports of herbaceous plants and shrubs
Vegetable growing, propagation and cultivation
Fruit tree planting, pruning and training
Weed identification and easy ways to manage the invasive ones
Plant identification
How to help wildlife through your gardening techniques
Planting up baskets and pots
Propagation - Taking cuttings and growing your own plants.
Improving soil health and why it is necessary
Organic and wildlife friendly gardening techniques
