When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. ~Author Unknown

Hello, and welcome to my website!

My name is Kate, and I am a Certified Horticulturalist and local weekend gardener for the New Westminster area.

If you are standing at the foot of your garden puzzling over some horticultural puzzle or other, let me help you out.

As a Certified Horticulturalist (graduate of Capilano College's horticulture program), I can provide you with solutions for a variety of your garden conundrums; including pruning, pest identification and management, weeding, design, maintenence and more.

Customer satisfaction is very important to me. Should you have any feedback or suggestions for improvement, I would be happy to hear from you (see contact page for details).

My aim is not simply to get the job done to a high standard, but hopefully also, to impart some of my knowledge to you, the client, in a friendly and expedient manner, so that you too can feel empowered in the garden. (Please ask me about my maintenance plan package - very reasonably priced and a good way to help you get to grips with both the plants in your garden and what exactly 'to do' with them.)

A small note: I do not use power tools of any kind, so by taking me on, you can continue to enjoy a tranquil atmosphere in your garden, even while I am working (you'll hardly know I'm there!).

I look forward to hearing from you. Here's to another great growing season!
