If you want to make the career jump to becoming a garden designer or even just to design your own garden, this is the beginner course for you. Join me, Lee Burkhill, an award-winning garden designer, as I train you in the art of beautiful garden design.
This course was everything I was hoping for and more. Lee’s approach is friendly and approachable, making complex design concepts feel totally manageable, even for someone like me with no prior experience.
Over 50 odd online lessons and videos, Lee guides you through each step of the design process, from understanding garden layouts and choosing plants to creating a fully fledged garden.
The videos and resources are packed with easy-to-follow instructions, and Lee’s enthusiasm is contagious! I loved that each lesson was packed with practical advice, actionable steps, and little design secrets that make a huge difference.
By the end of the course, I was able to fully visualise and plan my garden. and I felt confident in my choices. If you’ve ever dreamed of creating a beautiful garden space but didn’t know where to start, this course is for you! Lee’s passion and expertise are inspiring, and the results speak for themselves. A definite 5-star experience!
Thanks very much Lee for putting together this course. I have just finished it and have really enjoyed following every module. It is really easy to follow and having a variety of teaching methods such as video tutorials, drawings, notes, quizzes and case studies made it interesting from start to finish. Am hoping to make use of the knowledge to expand my garden maintenance business to incorporate a bit of design and the course will give me a bit more self confidence to do that. I would definitely be interested in any more courses you may offer in the future.Thanks again!
As a long term fan of Lee’s designs on Garden Rescue and YouTube What a fantastic online garden design course! I can already see how I’m going to apply what I’ve learnt to my own garden and you never know I may finally take the jump to becoming a part time garden designer for other people now!
Thanks Garden Ninja!

I’m a mega fan of Lee’s work both on TV and also his blog/youtubee where I’ve leanrnt tonnes about gardening.
I wanted to see if I could improve my garden design skills and this online course was an eye opener. There’s a lot about garden design and plants that you don’t consider until you start training.
I found Lee’s online course easy to follow and comprehensive as you can sit the lessons as many times as you want and watch his training videos its the best way to get a deeo dive into garden design without spending thousands of pounds and years of classroom time.
I’ve signed up for the whole bundle of Ninjas courses, and they are all equally as educational. Thanks Lee!
