Regardless of the time of year there's always something to do in the garden, and we look to gay Garden Rescue star Lee Burkhill for help and inspiration.
He told Sitting Spiritually that he's loved gardening since his childhood. 'The garden has always been my sanctuary to leave the world behind,' he added.
A design could look gorgeous but if the client is not going to use it or engage with the garden, they won't get the benefit.
Lee has also shared that his moniker came from one of his first clients who described him as a 'ninja' after he fixed their garden. The name stuck.
