As a professional in the plant industry, it is my obligation to ensure your success.
The journey began in 1971 with my first job in a florist shop ...
lol...the rest of my life?
Education, Internships, Experience in all aspects of Garden & Landscape, greenhouse science, resturant gardener., estate gardener, project managment, public siminars. award winning nursery retail managment.
.It is my goal for YOU to have beautiful success with each project, big or small. I want to see you excited about your yard.
I want you to treat your first blueberry plants like the hope and future that they represent. We are stressed out these days...Think of the blueberry pancakes you can make.....that's hope folks!.
I want you to grow it right the first time. I am that hashtagpracticalgardener.
Slow Grow is the name of the game for the future. How can I bring eatables into my world? Even small gestures from your yard to your kitchen over time add a sense grounding.
How about the empty lot by your business, a community garden? How many blueberry bushes does it take to feed your block? Does your hood want a garden club? Long term plans for a legacy community garden would be a terrific use of HOA dollars, yes? I am available to consult with your HOA board with you with planned long term goals ready for presenting positive, upbeat community based projects.
Wild Garden Dreams!
Practical Horticulture.
Ornamental Horticulture was my original focus, which evolved over the years to not only mowing million dollar golf greens and managing private estates, kitchen gardens, teaching. retail, perennial borders, microgreens, hydroponics..mushrooms.
