My story....

Just go for it!

I’m Lizzie, founder of the 'The Rose Press Garden', and that’s pretty much my life’s mantra…

Whether it be trying out new plants in my garden or giving up my secure job in the middle of a pandemic to start this business, I’m a huge believer in doing the things you love.

For me, gardening is pretty high on that list. I’ve grown up surrounded by gardening – Plus my first ever Brownie badge was of course the gardening one – but it wasn’t until I bought my first home that I realised just how happy it makes me.

As I began to transform my new build garden from a pile of mud and rubble into a flower-filled space, I found so much joy and happiness in creating something beautiful out of nothing.

I threw myself into learning everything I could and, while I loved every minute of it, I couldn’t shake my frustration with the fact that everything gardening-related was aimed at much older people than me. I wanted to scream 'Young people garden too!'

I wasn’t ready for stairlifts, reclining chairs or Velcro slippers.

Yet all the seeds I bought came in envelopes stuffed with adverts for these things.

Gardening was all I could talk about to my family and friends. I loved the positive impact it had on my mental and physical health, but there was no brand I could look at and say “Buy anything from there for my birthday”.

It was during lockdown, when my garden became such a sanctuary for me, that I realised how amazing it would be to connect with other young gardeners and help them reap the benefits of the hobby too.

I hated the idea that other people might be missing out on the fun because they didn’t feel confident enough to start or couldn’t see people their own age being represented in the gardening world.

And so 'The Rose Press Garden' was born, with the aim of making gardening modern, fun and easy.

I absolutely love helping beginner gardeners create beautiful gardens of their own and inspiring them to have the confidence to give it a try.

There’s nothing better than seeing the amazing pictures that people send me of the gorgeous flowers they’ve managed to grow.

I’m so proud that The Rose Press Garden has created such a wonderful, supportive community of over 26,000 fellow gardeners. Proof, if it were needed, that to ‘just go for it’ could be the best thing you ever do!

Why Rose Press?

The business is named after my wonderful godmother Rosamund Press

...who sadly died just a few months before I moved into my house. She was such a special person and like a second mum to me so I named my house The Rose Press, which then led to my Instagram account The Rose Press Garden – way before I had any intentions of starting a business!

The very first thing I planted was a rose by the front door in her memory. My Auntie Ros was so generous, always giving to charity despite coming from a modest background, which is why I decided to donate a proportion of all sales to Greenfingers Charity. I know she would have loved what I’m doing and I feel proud to be continuing her legacy in some way.

Subscriptions


When you purchase a subscription you'll receive repeat deliveries. Your first subscription box will be purchased at the check out for £25 and your first box will be sent out straight away (unless I am exhibiting at a gardening flower show where there may be a delay, or if there is a comment on the product description). Then ongoing these will be delivered every first week of the month. Eg if you order on the 16th of the month I will post out the box for that month out 1-3 days after you have purchased, and then the monthly deliveries will align to the 1st week of the month from then on. Please note if you order on the last day of a month, you will receive that months box. Eg If you order on 31st March before 23:59:59, you will receive the March box and then the box will renew at midnight. If it's towards the end of the month and you want to start in the next month, then ensure you wait until the 1st of that month to sign up.

Your payment details will be stored securely and you'll be charged £25 a month for each delivery. If you want to cancel or change your subscription, you can do it at any time (as long as the monthly box has not renewed. Eg you must cancel before the last day of the month). Your order confirmation emails have links to your order. You can manage your subscription easily from there. If you have any trouble at all then email or call me and I can manually edit your subscription for you.

You can also access your Monthly Gardening Subscription here: https://www.therosepressgarden.com/account/login

When you first log in you must click to register your account and create your own unique password. Once it's set up it will automatically sync to your email address. If you have any queries about the subscription then do get in touch.

 

Don't just hear it from me... some testimonials from my current subscribers:

"Absolutely loving my subscription box from Lizzie! I used to subscribe to a different box but since signing up for hers I will not look back. Beautifully packaged as with all her products, seeds that completely suit my colour scheme and have amazing germination rates and super efficient delivery, I couldn't be happier. Delivery day is my favourite day of the month and I love the anticipation of what amazing seeds will be inside each month. 100% recommend." Jen @myboxofbliss

"I absolutely love my box of flower filled dreams. I started a subscription during lockdown and nothing puts a smile on my face more than receiving a beautifully packaged well thought out box. And a great excuse to get out and plant my seeds in the garden. TRPG has helped me learn about flowers in a friendly and helpful way, building my confidence month by month. I can't wait for my next box." Steph

"TRPG monthly seed box subscription is the BEST reoccurring post ever. The attention to detail makes you feel extra special- great gifts from me, to me or for others and the seeds are super fresh and always germinate really quickly." Shannon @diaryofaladygardener
