When in doubt, Youtube it!
“Apart from the plumbing and electrics, Marcus built most of the house using Youtube videos - ‘How to tile a bathroom’, ‘How to plaster a wall’... We even had to do some horse-hair plastering because that was what there was in some areas of the house. Everything we did he pretty much self taught.”
Career move
“I guess my interest in gardening grew from from my love of interior design, and ways in which to extend this curation outside the home. Whilst I’ve always enjoyed being outside and gardening certain degree, it’s only really something I’ve thrown myself into since closing the shop and starting to study horticulture."

"My planting style is a bit of a mixture and still developing as I learn more about the many roles of different plants - I really love how some add structure to the garden, whilst others are more soft and whimsical. Initially, I was drawn to green tropical style gardens with lots of ferns and contrasting textures, now however I love flowers more and more, especially how they work in pacing the year and transforming the garden with colour from season to season. I am also obsessed with the sculptural qualities of topiary, especially when you see it in large open spaces.”
