    or from our printed catalogue,
• at several flower shows and
• in stunning garden plantings
    which we would be pleased to design for you.

Bulbs can be pre-ordered in season from our online catalogues:
• from January for summer flowering bulbs
   to plant in the Spring;
• from May for spring flowering bulbs
   to plant in the Autumn.

Plant of the Month

AWARDS - Chelsea Flower Show Gold medallists 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 & 2019.  Farrer Trophy for best Alpine display at an RHS show 2016, 2017 & 2018
 
Our catalogue is continuously updated and includes many rare and unusual plants we are introducing or re-introducing this year.  
Do come back if you don’t see what you’re looking for now  - new plants will be added as they continue to grow throughout the season. 
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.

The printed version of our catalogue is available at shows and talks, or on receipt of 3 first class stamps, from May each year.

PLANT STORE
 
We offer an exceptionally wide range of bulbs to pre-order in season, (January to March and May to July). We open our bulb store early and close it early! We publish two bulb catalogues online each year: • In May for Spring (& Autumn) flowering bulbs to plant in the Autumn; • In January for Summer flowering bulbs (& dormant plants) to plant in the Spring.

  The bulb store is currently closed.
