The Rich Brothers - Harry and David

The Rich Brothers Harry and David

The Rich Brothers Harry and David are gardeners who grew up in Brecon Beacons in rural South Wales.

Their parents had a small back garden but the boys had a huge playground of the countryside around their home.

As youngsters they enjoyed helping their dad out with projects in the garden, getting useful early experience of building design.

Harry is the eldest of the brothers and is 3 years older than David.


Branching out

Harry and David both studied Landscape Architecture at Leeds Metropolitan University but not at the same time.

The Rich Brothers are garden designers and their first show garden was at RHS Cardiff where they won best in show. 

They became the youngest ever winners at RHS Chelsea Flower Show in 2013 with their first Gold Medal.


From Little Acorns

The Rich brothers big break into Television gardening programmes was in 2016 when Garden Rescue co-starring Charlie Dimmock first appeared on our screens.

The garden makeover see the Rich Brothers cutting edge garden designs compete against Charlie and her more traditional style to be chosen by the home owner to transform their garden.

Arit Anderson joined the programme in 2019 during series 4 and brings a different style of gardening for the brothers to compete against.

Garden Rescue has just started its 5th series.

They have also appeared as presenters on RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

The Rich Brothers have recently designed their own range of garden furniture and accessories for Habitat.
