Jo Jemmison Garden

I am an award winning garden and landscape designer based in Sevenoaks providing a bespoke design and consultancy service in Kent, Sussex, Surrey and London. I undertake all kinds of domestic and commercial projects ranging from renovating beds and borders to drawing up masterplans for country estates. In 2014 I won an RHS Silver Gilt Medal and a Best in Category award for a Metamorphosis Show Garden at BBC Gardeners World Live for my first show garden. Following a degree in Visual Arts and Information Technology, I was employed by Eurostar in Facilities Management and Personnel Services. I made the leap into horticulture as a career in 1997 when I decided to train as a professional gardener at Capel Manor. I soon set up my own garden maintenance business in North London. I became really interested in the design and construction of the gardens I was working in and after undertaking a City and Guilds course in Hard Landscaping I began to design and build gardens too.
