About Rachael Murphy – Professional Gardener in West Norfolk


Meet Rachael Murphy, a professional gardener based in King’s Lynn and West Norfolk, offering skilled, trustworthy garden care with a personal touch.


About Rachael

Rachael’s path to gardening began in a rather different world — museums and libraries. After years of studying and working in those carefully curated environments, she realised that she wanted to be outdoors, helping to nurture living collections instead.


Training and Experience

To make the change, she retrained at the Norfolk School of Gardening and joined the Work and Retrain as a Gardener Scheme (WRAGS).

As part of this, she spent a year working part-time in a 20-acre formal garden on a private estate, gaining invaluable hands-on experience in all aspects of horticulture from experienced head gardeners— from propagation and pruning to border care and plant training.


Creating Norfolk Lady Gardener

Rachael started Norfolk Lady Gardener to offer something she felt was missing — a gardening service that bridges the gap between routine maintenance and specialist horticultural care.

Her aim is to provide high-quality, thoughtful gardening in King’s Lynn, Downham Market, Swaffham, Castle Acre and surrounding villages— combining the practical skills needed for jobs like hedge cutting, mowing, and garden clearance with the fine, detailed work of pruning, planting, and seasonal border care.


Professionalism and Safety

Professionalism and safety are at the heart of Norfolk Lady Gardener. Rachael is DBS checked, holds the NEBOSH National General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety, and is committed to continuing her horticultural training to stay up to date with best practices.

You can trust that your garden will be cared for with skill and respect.
