My horticultural background and experience.

Having grown up within an area of outstanding natural beauty, in the Teme valley Worcestershire, surrounded by nature, this is what influenced me into becoming a gardener.

I started my career in Horticulture in 1994, spending a year on a wholesale tree farm. The farm raised over 3000 field scale trees per year and hardy ornamental nursery stock, supplied to Landscapers, Local councils, and professional gardeners.

Following this I pursued a Degree in Horticulture Bsc. (Hons) 1995 -99, at Pershore college of Horticulture, with a 1 yr. internship through Ohio State University USA., at Toledo Botanical Garden Ohio. Whilst there I travelled to New York botanical Gardens, Holden Arboretum Ohio, Chicago Botanical Gardens, Yellowstone Park Wyoming, Butchart gardens Vancouver Island British Columbia, Willamette Valley Oregon, Newport Oregon, The Grand Canyon in Arizona, Virginia and West Virginia and Orlando Florida.

After college between 2001 – 2007 I was a Daily Gardener for the Throckmorton Family Gardens at Coughton Court (NT), Warwickshire. I was employed by “Lady” Throckmorton to help with the maintenance of 22 acres of formal and informal gardens. The Gardens entertained up to 100,000 visitors a year, designed by Christina Williams and officially opened by Alan Titchmarsh in 1994. This was a traditional gardeners role were, a person started as the most junior and worked your way to a promotion. After some six years I became Head Gardener.

2007 – 2011 Head Gardener for the Trockmorton Family Gardens. The Rose Labyrinth awarded the International Rose Growers Federation Award in 2010. A wide variety of plants were grown for sale and display in the gardens including Digitalis, Alchemilla mollis and ferns which were grown for “The two Moors” Chelsea Flower show display garden 2010 and awarded a Silver Gilt medal.

As a Gardener for the Throckmorton family I visited Chelsea flower show annually, tours were given about the rose labyrinth and daffodils. In March 2011 I spoke live on ITV weather about the daffodils of Coughton Court.

In 2011 I became Garden Supervisor at Kenilworth Castle Gardens. The Elizabethan Garden was First created by Robert Dudley Earl of Leicester in 1575 for Queen Elizabeth I. This Historic collection of over 3000 plants of national importance, laid out in 96 raised beds, was carefully maintained for over 120,000 visitors per year. 

Following my work and training with English Heritage in 2012 I became a Freelance gardener. Trading as Tim Green Ltd, I have provided gardening services in Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, and Worcestershire. I have maintained various manor house gardens, cottage gardens, farmhouse gardens and more recently Luxury retirement apartment gardens. 

With 28 years’ experience in gardening, I aim to use a wide range of different horticultural husbandry techniques in a varied and sustainable way to maintain a balanced and plant diverse outdoor environment
