I am an experienced teacher of topiary and pruning, running workshops in the topiary garden of Charlotte Molesworth in Kent, as well as for The English Gardening School and The European Boxwood And Topiary Society.

So if you are a keen gardener, a garden club, a group of friends who want to know more or even an absolute beginner who has been bitten by the gardening bug, then do contact me about what you might like to learn.

What a laugh we are having in this workshop session I ran for a group of friends in Essex…

Many people employ me to come in and do the topiary and pruning work for them, but sometimes people don’t need me – what they need is a little inspiration, a little help with technique and design. They love their garden, and I for one love to encourage people to take ownership of what they have.

Teaching topiary is about allowing people to develop the instinct and eye for gardening and pruning they need to make the garden into something special, something that feels like it belongs in their home.

So one-to-one, or group teaching, in your own garden, is a perfect solution – you enjoy the time getting to know and understand what you need to do (and can do) whilst learning the foundations of being a good pruner.

If you think a workshop or some teaching might benefit you and your garden, then please do get in touch with me. Add the following details:

• Name
• Number
• Where you are based
• How many people might join – you alone, or in a small group
• A general idea of the plants we could prune and practise on

Then I can get back to you and we can work out a plan of action for helping you learn to prune.
