About Me

Hi, I’m Ruth, and gardening has been part of my life since childhood. Inspired by my mother’s love of gardening, I grew up appreciating the beauty, peace, and creativity that comes with tending a garden. With RHS training in Horticulture, I’ve turned my passion into a career doing what I love most.

Beyond my work, I also cultivate an allotment with the help from my family and friends. What began with growing fruit and vegetables for seasonal eating, has over the years blossomed into a passion for growing cut flowers, bringing colour, fragrance, and a haven for pollinators and wildlife.
This hands-on experience continually deepens my knowledge and enriches the way I care for clients’ gardens.

Sustainable Gardening

At Little Eden, I believe gardens should benefit both people and the planet. Wherever possible, I use eco-friendly practices such as composting, recycling green waste, encouraging natural pest control, and planting with pollinators in mind. I also love to collect seeds from plants I’ve grown myself – a sustainable way to save money, preserve much-loved varieties, and encourage biodiversity. Over time, these seeds adapt to the soil and climate, bringing colour and character back to the garden year after year.

Pruning & Plant Care

Pruning is essential for keeping plants healthy, strong, and beautiful. With my training and hands-on experience, I can care for roses, flowering shrubs, perennials, and shrubs grown for winter stem colour. My approach is careful and considered to encourage growth, shape, and flowering, ensuring your plants look their best year after year.
