“ I would like to
thank Helen and the staff for their help over the past few years and continued success
in the future. I have thoroughly enjoyed the course and have been taught plenty of
new information on horticulture.
Best wishes for the colleges continued success. I will be recommending the course
to whom ever is interested.”
Kind regards, Linda B.” Dublin

“Am working on TMA 03 and finding it really
interesting!! Things I never knew about cocoa and pineapples!! I find the questions
cleverly designed to make one really think hard and do a lot of research which is
why it takes me so long!!! Even so I am really enjoying it! (wanted to share my
thoughts about this!) Have a good weekend,”

“I
have completed the RHS (Level 2) course and sat the exam. I understand the results
will be coming from RHS but was wondering if you had any idea on how long it usually
takes to get the results?
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Helen and
IHRS for providing me with an excellent course and tuition. The modules were well
written and even though I never met my tutor, Helen, I always felt she was there
for me to ask questions at any time. The comments made on my answers were very beneficial.
If
I pass this exam (fingers crossed!), I will be taking a break from study but in the
future may want to look into further horticulture courses and it will most definitely
be with yourselves. Thanks again.”

“Dear Helen, I am aware that I am running
out of time to complete this course, although I only have TMA 12 to complete. In
truth I have little enthusiasm for Garden Design as a subject, preferring my gardens
to evolve, as this new one will once the builders have departed!.....I should like
to thank you for all your help, guidance and prompt attention over the last three
years; nobody could have asked for a better tutor nor a more informative course.
I have thoroughly enjoyed it and learned so much. I am sure that I shall go back
over my course work during the winter and enjoy reading again the books that I obtained
to help me in my course work.
P.S. This (neglected) garden is poor, shallow, stony soil over a layer of clay in some places and in others shallow soil over slate rock! Like the sound of it? It's quite a challenge! From the rocks that I have dug out of what will be the vegetable plot I have built a wall in the front garden! Now I wouldn't have tackled that if I hadn't done the TMA covering rock walls! With my thanks and best wishes.”
