Alys Fowler
Alys Fowler (born 9 November 1977) is a British horticulturist and journalist. She was a presenter on the long-running BBC television programme ''Gardeners' World''. Early life and education Fowler was born in Silchester, Hampshire, and had a rural childhood. Her father was a doctor, and her mother ran various businesses – she had 200 chickens and sold their eggs, trained gun dogs, and would dog-sit for Londoners.

In 1998, she was awarded a Smithsonian Scholarship to study at the New York Botanical Gardens based in the Bronx. Fowler returned to the UK in 1999 to attend University College London, where, in 2002, she completed a master's ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
