Rosy was immersed in plants and gardens from a very early age, taking inspiration from both her mother and grandmother and ending up as a prize winning student at Writtle College. The current nursery at Whitchurch was set up in 1991. Rosy has an exhausting show circuit that runs virtually all year; their efforts have not gone unnoticed as she has been a consistent medal winner at RHS Westminster Flower Shows and 20 Gold Medals at The Chelsea Flower Shows.
