Owner, Brooke Jennings, said they undertook a \u201csummer clean-up\u201d. \u201cThings had gotten overgrown, so we removed some old plants and installed some more fruit trees for him,\u201d Ms Jennings said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has a young child with Daisy and he wanted Lukey to be able to go out and pick herbs and fruit and veggies with him, so we did a large clean-up, installed new plants, and fertilised mulch.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked what he was most looking forward to about the new garden, Gleave replied: \u201cNot lifting anything or getting my hands dirty.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to look like a\u2026.a fairy wonderland garden.\u201d<\/p>\n

Brooke\u2019s Blooms has worked with many high-profile clients, including Adam Treloar, Josh Dunkley, Charlie Cameron, and Corey Oates.<\/p>\n
