Horticulturist

Lotus Landscape is recruiting a Horticulturist in North Kingstown. Bring your plant-care skills to a family-led garden studio working across Rhode Island and coastal properties. What you will do • Support plant health and attentive garden care. • Contribute to planting design and installation. • Share horticultural knowledge and help improve established gardens. How the work fits together Kevin Brannon and his daughter Jaclyn built Lotus around the connection between horticulture and visual design. Their family practice works with property owners, architects, and designers to create gardens that respond to their setting and change through the seasons. Plant health and ecological function are considered alongside appearance. Garden-care work includes weeding, pruning, deadheading, perennial cutbacks, transplanting, and bed maintenance. Depending on the service plan, the team monitors soil moisture, looks for pests or stress, adds compost, and documents changes with photographs. Some properties receive periodic oversight while others need more frequent hands-on care. This creates a mix of practical plant work, observation, and communication, with an emphasis on preventing problems and keeping established gardens healthy over time. What the employer is looking for • Bring relevant horticultural experience and describe your strengths in plant care, design, or installation. • Be ready to discuss your experience and work authorization in the application.
