I want to work with plants?

I would like to work in a garden centre or nursery in greater London.


I love gardening and plants and I have an RHS qualification. Unfortunately, I come from a completely different working background.





What is the best way to find a job in this sector?

I want to work with plants?
You can query Yahoo for gardeners and landscapers in the London area like I did. Here are a few: http://www.landscape-gardeners-directory...


http://www.greencarelandscapes.com or http://www.landscape-gardener.com They all have contact numbers and ask about possible employment and the type of credentials they usually look for when hiring. Most companies would probably be able to help you in your search.
Reply:You could try visiting different garden centres, etc. and by talking to them direct, wowing them with your enthusiasm, knowledge of plants and gardening and the fact that you have a qualification, maybe you will be able to convince them that they can't do without your help!!





Good luck.
Reply:you have great love for Botany, why dont u work in the public park where they will be glaD TO employ u.
Reply:Just go to as many plant nurseries or garden centres and ask,scroll through the yellow pages. Ask on line, go to the job centre. Find out who to contact from the councils for their parks department. Phone the stately homes and find out who does their gardens, there are thousands of ways to find out. You just have to apply yourself to the task.
