Esme Jones

In their own words

Esme’s passion for the natural environment began in childhood, shaped by time spent outdoors and learning about plants from her mother, a horticulturist and garden designer.

Working at a florist and later a plant nursery helped her develop practical horticultural knowledge and an appreciation for planting design.

These experiences led her to study landscape architecture, with the aim of creating functional spaces that encourage engagement with nature.
