About us |
|
Steve Rice established Blooming Good Gardens in 1996 after studying horticulture and then garden design at Sparsholt College, Hampshire.
Top student in both of his courses, Steve went on to achieve more than ten successful years in designing and building gardens. This landscaping experience gave him the advantage of understanding the use of particular materials and how to overcome problems on difficult sites. He now concentrates on all aspects of design for domestic, commercial and public spaces.
Steve prides himself on creating beautiful and practical gardens - paying close attention to your needs to ensure that the garden is true to your requirements and fits well with your property and its surroundings - whether formal or informal, modern and contemporary, or more traditionally-styled.
