Emma gained an HND in Commercial Horticulture from Hadlow College in 2002, with over 20 years of horticultural experience under her belt. Emma and her husband Monty owned The Walled Nursery in Hawkhurst from 2010 to 2020, growing the majority of plants on site as well as delivering an array of horticultural courses. Emma started off training at the world famous Great Dixter Gardens in East Sussex whilst studying horticulture at Hadlow, she then went on to become a gardener at Sissinghurst Castle for many years before buying The Walled Nursery. The Walled Nursery was a labour of love for Emma and her family, with one of the largest collections of Victorian Glasshouses in the UK, they certainly had their hands full. Thousands of plants were produced each season which soon became the place to go for sensible, down to earth gardening advice and garden worthy plants. Emma's strength is to truly understand a clients needs and think creatively using her wealth of experience to find a workable solution. This may be spending a day in the greenhouse teaching how to propagate, waking and talking through your garden, appraising and reevaluating or redesigning a garden that just isn't working for you. If your garden is causing you concern, get in touch, Emma's business is launching officially in Spring 2022 when a website will be launched.
