In June 2008 Matthew took up his new role with the RHS as Head of Gardens Creative Development. This role will see him working across all four RHS gardens in a creative capacity, helping to deliver increased visitor numbers, enhanced events programmes and interpretative content.

Matthew Wilson RHS joined Harlow Carr in February 2004, having previously been the Curator of RHS Garden Hyde Hall for four years. Despite vowing not to follow the family tradition (his parents ran a nursery in a small village in Kent), Matthew has now become a very respected voice within the horticultural field.

It was during his time working with his father at a large historic garden in the south of England that Matthew's interest in gardening. A childhood love of wildlife and the environment has remained a constant theme and has been translated into the management of the Gardens that Matthew has looked after, and his writing, lecturing and broadcasting.

Matthew is a Trustee of the Lowther Castle & Gardens Trust (Cumbria), Board member and horticultural advisor to Horticap (Harrogate) and Patron of the Friends of Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

In 2009 Matthew joined the Landscape Agency; a landscape architecture and design practice, after working with the RHS for over a decade.
