Jamie Ingram, GNVQ, NEBOSH, NVQ City and Guilds
My journey began with an admiration for the intricate beauty of plant life and a desire to create outdoor spaces that inspire. My expertise spans a spectrum of horticultural practices, from simple daily maintenance to landscape design to plant production, growth and management. I have had my work featured in Bord Bia Bloom in Phoenix Park, the Birmingham NEC and more locally, The Balmoral Show.
In addition to being a proud owner of a landscaping company for over 15 years, annually, I tend to the operation of a successful greenhouse business in Maine, USA. Stateside, I carefully manage all aspects of business from seeding to customer relations. glenleelandscapes@btinternet.com
Through my classes and workshops, I am committed to sharing my knowledge of sustainable practices and strive to enhance biodiversity and promote ecological harmony.
