    • Wisteria winter pruning, putting up new wires as well. These tensioners are great. #gardenexpert #gardenmaintenance #wisteriapruning #wisteria
    • Trying to take a nice photo of me pruning is quite difficult!
    • Up the top of a ladder pruning a grape vine
    • Black currant pruning today. These haven't been pruned in a while so I am removing a third of old wood, and any crossing or damaged stems. #blackcurrant #pruning
    • Bulb planting today secured from squirrels by wire mesh!
    • Bramble the daschund "helping" me naturalise bulbs in the lawn! He got his entire nose in the hole at one point.
    • Asplenium scolopendrium
    • Under planting this Amelanchier lamarkii with Hakonachloa macra, and soon bulbs as well. Will look great once it fills out some more!

    Ben has only been working in my (very large and previously rather messy) garden for a few months but I can already see the improvements that his skills are making.
    I would thoroughly recommend him.”
