Horticulture at Borders College can offer students the opportunity to gain hands-on practical experience of growing and maintaining plants outdoors and in a glasshouse. You will also learn about maintenance of grassed areas, use of horticultural machinery and the construction of landscaped areas. Successful completion has led to employment in private gardens, on estates, plant nurseries, garden centres, and with organisations such as the National Trust, Botanic Gardens, or self-employment. You can also progress to the higher level qualifications. Our courses are also well suited to ‘home gardeners’ wishing to gain knowledge and practical experience to help assist in managing their own gardens.
