It's hands-on, practical and customer-focused, with buying responsibilities increasing as your confidence grows. What do I need? Strong plant knowledge, particularly with Latin names Experience in horticulture. This could be from working in garden centres, commercial growing or plant maintenance. A genuine interest in plant buying and supplier relationships Confidence speaking to customers and building relationships Ability to juggle tasks - you might be writing an order one minute and helping a customer the next Reliability and a willingness to get stuck into whatever needs doing What's next?
