iGrowHort

Ecological gardening, rooted in place.

Practical horticulture, reflective writing, and lived experience shaped by gardens across the UK, the US, and a new chapter unfolding in Poland.

The Work

About iGrowHort

iGrowHort began as a way of recording what I was learning across gardens in very different places — the rhythms, the failures, the slow accumulations of attention. Over time it became something broader: a space to think in public about horticulture, ecology, and what it means to tend a piece of land with care.

The site has changed because the work has changed. Physical products are gone. What remains is what matters most: practical guidance rooted in ecological thinking, writing shaped by gardens and seasons, and a growing collection of resources that travel wherever you are.

This is a place to read, to return to, and to find your way into work that takes the long view. The seasons set the pace here. Follow whichever path feels right.
