Hey there! I am looking for an experienced gardener who would like to take care of the gardens on a 2 acre property located just inside of Metchosin on Elna Rd (about 5 minutes down the road from Royal Bay). This garden was developed over the course of 20 years as the passion project of an ex-HCP Instructor. She has since retired and moved on and I am now looking for someone to assist me in keeping the garden and lawn in its current state. The garden has a huge diversity of plant species, all of which have been meticulously documented and photographed. It really is an amazing garden. The primary tasks will be weeding and general pruning of the garden as well as mowing the lawn using a brand new zero-turn ride-on mower (provided). I estimate the workload to be one full day every 2 weeks and I am totally flexible on making it work around your schedule. Payment will be $40/hour. Tasks: • Mowing lawn with Ride-on Mower • Cleaning up Lawn edges with Weed Wacker • Mowing lawn along driveway with combination of ride-on and weed wacker • Weeding garden beds in main garden (behind deer fence) as well as the 3 beds in front of the deer fence along driveway • Weeding the gravel paths in garden • Weeding cracks and edges of driveway • Containing ground cover plants along gravel garden pathways as discussed • Pruning plants in garden - dead branches and crossing branches • Clearing Driveway of needles, pine cones and leaves Seasonal Tasks: • (Summer) Cutting back Pond Grass - only one variety requires cutting • (Fall) Cutting back herbaceous plants in garden • (Fall, Arbutus in Summer) Cleaning up leaves -leaves on lawn can be done very efficiently with mower, gardens must be done via blower or rake • (Fall) Laying down fertilizer and mulch on the garden beds
