New Shoots Garden Design and Maintenance - banner image

Sue Holland and Sally Ives have agricultural and horticultural backgrounds and met in the early 1990s while studying History with Landscape Archaeology at the University of East Anglia. The course provided the opportunity to gain an understanding of the history of landscape development, in particular, the designed landscapes of parks and gardens in the eighteenth century with Professor Tom Williamson. A mutual love of gardens and the landscape has led them to form this gardening partnership.
