Hi! I’m Liza and I’ve been working at the Gardens as a landscape designer for 6 years!
As a landscape designer, I conceptualise, plan, and design plant displays. I also oversee the setup of these displays to ensure the Gardens presents a showpiece of horticulture and garden artistry to visitors.
The Viewing Gallery at the entrance of Flower Dome is my favourite spot in the Gardens because I get to take in a breathtaking view of the Flower Field below!
Join me on sharing sessions to learn more about the Gardens and what it takes to put together a plant display!
