Environment statement

Protecting the environment is fundamental to me as a horticulturist, no aspect of what I do should have a known negative impact on the gardens I manage and equally, the environment.

This includes:
  • Complying with all relevant legislation such as the Weeds, Pesticides, Environmental Protection Acts.
  • Using integrated pest management, plant selection and soil management to reduce the use of pesticides and herbicides
  • Not using bush rock, sand or other natural materials unless those materials are recycled
  • Protecting sensitive bush environments and animal habitats
  • Disposing of lawn clippings, prunings, soil and other material responsibily
  • Promoting environmentally low impact garden practices to the community, clients and colleagues
  • Reducing, reusing and recycling materials wherever possible.
