What do you love most about your job?

What inspired you to start your own business?
For years I worked in commercial horticulture producing plants for all manner of companies, then i moved in to the garden centre industry, then i got the opportunity to return to my first love as a personnel gardener, so i was working full time at this and in the evenings i was setting up my own business part time. I could see an opportunity to spread my wings and go out and do what i enjoyed.
