About John Yeo

John Yeo is a fully qualified Horticulturist.  He worked for Torbay Parks department for 35 years and retired early at 50 when they closed the Nurseries down. Since then he has had the opportunity to work for the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) as their Floral Marquees Manager for 4 years, looking after all the exhibitors at all of the top shows.

John Yeo is a judge at the Gardeners World show at Birmingham’s NEC and also a judge for South West in Bloom but his ultimate aim is to become an RHS judge at their top shows such as Chelsea: “that for me would be the icing on the cake after exhibiting there and working there so a judge there would be the ultimate pinnacle of my horticultural life”.
