We are a small, specialist, not-for-profit nursery offering a wide selection of alpine, woodland and damp-loving plants; an exceptional range of bulbs in season and a selection of specialist trees and shrubs.  We have plants from all over the world, grown here on our Scottish nursery.
We supply our plants:
  • by mail-order from our online store,
  • at several flower shows and
  • in stunning garden plantings.

We offer creative garden designs for both new and established gardens.

Bulbs can be pre-ordered in season from our online catalogues

Our plant catalogue is continuously updated and includes many rare and unusual plants we are introducing or re-introducing this year.

We've introduced a new 'Find a Plant' function which we hope you'll find helpful in looking for plants for a particular season or area, or of a particular colour or height.

If a plant you're looking for isn't currently in stock, you can ask us to email you when it's available.



We offer plants for your rock garden, woodland or damp area, as well as a selection of herbaceous plants, and trees & shrubs.  We have ground cover plants and some that cope in dry shade, as well as many that are easy to grow.  You can take a look at our specialities.  We have also put together some collections of plants that we display together at the shows.


PLANT STORE
 




An exceptionally wide range of bulbs can be pre-ordered in season, from our online catalogues.

• Spring (& Autumn) flowering bulbs can be ordered from July, to plant in the Autumn;
• Summer flowering bulbs (& dormant plants) can be ordered from February, to plant in the Spring.

We also offer a specialist bulb list of rare Spring and Autumn bulbs.

Our bulbs are delivered to you fresh, avoiding lengthy storage in warm premises.
In addition there are some bulbs listed in our main catalogue, which are potted and can be bought at any time of the year.
