Abstract
My career change from a plant pathologist at the National Institute of Agricultural botany to a Head Gardener at Wolfson and the joys of growing and nurturing healthy plants here at Wolfson as opposed to looking at diseased and dying plants in my previous career!
As a farmer’s son, I grew up with a love of nature and the countryside and I am now re-creating ‘naturalistic’ areas within the gardens to ‘mimic’ what we see in nature.
