Open Days

Trained on the Diploma at RHS Wisley, Sean went on to prestigious roles for the RHS, National Trust and Kensington Palace before joining The Inner Temple in 2018. Throughout his career he has studied plants all over the world including Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, the gardens of Kyoto and the High Line, New York. Since taking over the Inner Temple Garden, Sean has worked closely with Deputy Head Gardener Sophie and the team, to evolve the Garden into a dreamlike, plantsperson’s oasis, with artistic and ecologically minded planting at its core

Sophie trained at the Inner Temple Garden and at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, followed by the Master of Horticulture with the RHS. She takes a particular interest in biodiverse planting schemes for city greening focusing on sensible, resourceful and sustainable horticultural practices. In the garden and as a committee member of the London Gardens Network, Sophie takes great pride in sharing knowledge, skills, experiences and to provide learning guidance to encourage future horticulturists.
