Darlington Gardener

Hey, I’m Rebecca

I’m a Darlington Gardener, originally from Durham and have been a qualified Gardener & Florist for 15 years. Most recently I have worked for The Apartment Group as a Gardener and Florist and as a Horticultural and Floristry lecturer at Houghall College.

My passion for nature and sustainability shines through in the work I do for clients, both in gardening and floristry.

I was trained in Horticulture and Floristry at Houghall College, achieving the highest grades within my group, and have most recently completed a BSc Environmental Science degree at Northumbria University. My dissertation was based on urban trees amongst different income groups in Durham, to address environmental inequalities. Alongside this, I’ve also worked as a wedding florist for 15 years, owning my own business.

In my spare time, I enjoy running, walking, bird watching and immersing myself in nature. I have 2 border terriers which I am bessotted with, and live with my fiance, Joss in West Park.

I offer a range of professional gardening and floristry services such as garden maintenance, design and management. Please message me below for more details about these services, I’d be so glad to help you with your garden!
