LESSONS IN GARDENING

Lessons in Gardening

Passionate about plants and gardens and the impact they have on the greater environment (as well as our own health and wellbeing), we have spent 20+ years growing plants as sustainably as possible. We've also worked closely with some of the best garden designers in the business to deliver award winning gardens, so we've picked up a few tips about how gorgeous gardens are created - and we'd love to share our knowledge with you.

If you've always wanted to create a beautiful garden, then this FREE 6 week course will show you how. You'll learn all the tricks of the trade and the foundation principles of gardening - including how to work within your space (no matter how large or small), how to sustain year-round interest, how to create beautiful displays, and how and what to plant. You'll also have exclusive access to our team of experts who can answer any questions you may have - as well as some special offers to help you get kitted out.

Over the 6 weeks you will receive an email each week with practical information and case studies from gardeners to lead you through the course. Be sure to sign up to receive these emails (if you are already a Crocus Club member you don't need to sign up again). We will be encouraging you to share your experiences, gardening tips and gardening challenges, and to make use of our team of Plant Doctors. Join our community of gardeners on our FREE app Iris for Q&A sessions, personalised plant care tips and to access our team of Plant Doctors.
