Terry Bane completed over 43 years service at Norwich City Council in March 2020 when Norfolk County Council took back Norwich highway land and advertising.

Terry enjoyed working with many sponsors and advertisers through the Norwich in Bloom/Blooms for Norwich scheme for over 26 years - "Bloomin Marvelous" and as part of his previous work at EARLHAM PARK NURSERY 1977 - 1990.

 

Terry has spent a life time in horticulture as a professional and a way of life, enjoying the growing of flowers, fruit, vegetables and native plants and to encourage biodiversity and provide wildlife sustenance and habitat.

 

In 1986 Terry became a local Norwich in Bloom competition judge and a member of the first  Norwich in Bloom Association committee, later called The Friends of Norwich in Bloom, in 2016 after 30 years helping to develop and set up The Friends of Norwich in Bloom as a registered charity Terry needed to step down to gain time to look after his mum, Terry remains a Life Member to advise, support and encourage Trustees, associated volunteers and groups when needed.

 

A passionate horticulturalist Terry was student gardener for 2 years full time before working 43 years and 6 months for Norwich City Council, Terry had various roles at Anglia in Bloom incuding Chairman, Webmaster, Media Relations and Honorary Ambassador encouraging the regional environmental campaign until 2023 and is a Life Member of the Royal Horticultural Society.

 

Terry started to create and develop a "Norwich in Bloom" website in 2002 showing what Norwich in Bloom was all about, partnerships, sponsorship and people that have made Norwich so attractive for so many people to enjoy and benefit.

 

In 2025 Terry started to change and archive this website again  to show some historical activities, events and achievements and the people, business and organisations that kept Norwich Blooming from 1986 to 2020.

 

This website is also linked to Terry's other website www.banesbloomingbritain.co.uk where many more of Terry and Mirelle's photos of horticultural travels, activities and events and their garden can be seen and read about.
