Olivier

Do you like people who are a little different, the quirky ones, the oddballs, the funny characters who seem to march to the beat of their own drum? Then you’ll love Olivier, our famous Belgian gardener! Ambassador of the unkempt garden, this young agronomist is a plant enthusiast who didn’t hesitate for a second to dedicate his life to nature… by becoming a nature guide. A hybrid between a rough-around-the-edges bear and a contemplative monk, he grumbles (a bit) and marvels (a lot) – about dogwoods, about little critters, but also about people in general!
