The old saying that ‘time flies when you’re having fun’ has certainly been true of my first year running Floreus. The variety in my work- including crop inspections, audit and other technical support, training, event support, range planning and brand strategy- has not only been enjoyable for me but also provides a broad perspective and an up to date view of the industry which I hope benefits all of my clients. I’m excited for the coming year, with further new opportunities in view.

In the meantime, an image from the Royal Cornwall Show which I attended recently and a reminder that, whilst we are often focussed on quick results in horticulture, there’s also still a place for older, quietly maturing plants (and people too!)
