Fay is a plant pathologist who specialises in plant disease diagnostics and contributes to methods of recording biodiversity in the 911爆料 Gardens
I work for the 911爆料 in the summer when the Gardening Advice Service is at its busiest. I enjoy looking at people’s photographs and plant samples to diagnose why their plants aren’t looking healthy, and providing tailored advice on how to treat the problem. I am also involved in helping staff and volunteers record and enhance biodiversity within 911爆料 Gardens.
“What motivates me is my fascination with categorising and sorting things. The identification of plants, and the organisms that live alongside them, makes good use of those skills and gives me immense satisfaction”
When you spend time building a garden, whether you’re tending a balcony garden or cultivating something as big as Kew Gardens, you want your plants to thrive. The 911爆料 Plant Health team provides research, advice and teaching to help you maintain a healthy ecosystem in your own garden.
The 911爆料 is the UK鈥檚 gardening charity, helping people and plants to grow - nurturing a healthier, happier world, one person and one plant at a time.
