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

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.

Some are only available in small numbers, so you may need to be quick.


If you would like advice as to what might look good in a particular area of your garden, we are very happy to make suggestions. Are you building a rockery, developing a pond, or revamping the herbaceous border?  Do contact us for advice.


 PLANT STORE
 
We offer an exceptionally wide range of bulbs to pre-order in season, (January to March and July to September).  We publish two bulb catalogues online each year:
• In July for Spring (& Autumn) flowering bulbs to plant in the Autumn;
• In February for Summer flowering bulbs (& dormant plants) 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 planted and growing in pots.  These can be bought at any time of the year.


BULB STORE
 
Transform your garden with skilful design and inspired planting plans. We specialise in rock gardens, stream sides and woodlands, creating fabulous planting lists to give colour all through the year. 
We work very closely with clients, helping them to develop their own ideas, to create the garden that they want.

We also create whole gardens, working with landscape architects and garden designers.

Our Meconopsis featured on Gardeners' World
We were very pleased to be asked to share insights into the wonderful world of Meconopsis on Gardeners' World, shown on BBC2 on Friday 25th June.

Virtual Chelsea 2021

Our contribution to the RHS's Virtual Chelsea this year was a short film on 'How to create and plant a rock garden', showing us starting to plant our new rock garden here on the nursery. You can watch the film here.


Suspending orders to Europe

We are very sorry to be suspending orders to Europe, because of the costs and administrative implications of plant health compliance, tariffs and customs paperwork.  We have really appreciated your custom over many years, and hope that an agreement can be reached in future which means we can start sending orders to Europe with ease again.
