From flower and vegetable seeds, seed potatoes, garlic bulbs, to onion sets and shallots, we have a great choice in stock now. Check out our range of propagating products too. Don’t forget, we have herbs, soft fruit bushes and fruit trees in our outdoor plant area. Vegetable plants will be available later this month.

Seasonal Bedding Plants & Planted Containers

After 35 years, we are proud that we have continued to grow our own bedding plants. We have early spring bedding plants ready now. Our team have been busy planting up seasonal containers & hanging baskets. They make beautiful gifts, which are perfect for Mothering Sunday, Easter, a birthday or even a thank you. They will brighten up the smallest to the largest of outdoor spaces. Production of our summer bedding plants has started & will be available later next month continuing throughout the summer months.

The Outdoor Plant Area

For the past few weeks, our outdoor plant area has been transformed into a beautiful outdoor space with new stock arriving daily. From cottage garden plants, rockery plants and roses to hedging plants, shrubs & trees, we have a fantastic selection in stock now. We have a great range of specimen shrubs and trees which will add structure to the garden. Our flowering spring bulbs are bursting with colour from tulips to daffodils. They are a great way to transform your borders or to fill containers. Not sure what to plant, have a chat with our helpful staff.

Our 35th Anniversary

This year we celebrate our 35th Anniversary. It’s hard to imagine that when we opened to the public in April 1991, that we had little more than an old wooden building acting as our shop and a single glasshouse growing and selling our home-grown bedding plants. Since that time, we have greatly increased the range of plants and horticultural products that we stock. We thought we’d share a couple of photos from that time with you.

We would like to thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you soon.

With our best wishes.

September 2025 Newsletter

Welcome to the autumn edition of our e-newsletter. It’s all change in the glasshouses at the Nurseries. The team have been busy producing the autumn bedding plants over the past few weeks. We have had a tremendous amount of plant stock delivered including a superb range of trees and specimen shrubs. Whether, you have a small space to fill or undertaking a new project, we can help. The autumn is the perfect time for planting whilst there is still warmth in the ground. This enables the plants to get established before the cold of winter arrives. Both the glasshouses and outside plant area are bursting with colour – from flowers and berries to beautiful foliage, so why not pay us a visit today.

Spring Flowering Bulbs

We have a great selection of spring flowering bulbs for planting this autumn in stock now. We have prepacked bulbs, loose bulbs & bulk bags available. They offer excellent value for money and will add vibrant colours to your garden after the dreary winter months. As well as borders, consider planting them in containers with your autumn & winter bedding plants for an extra burst of colour in the spring.

Autumn & Winter Bedding Plants, Hanging Baskets & Planted Containers

Our home-grown autumn & winter flowering pansies, panolas, violas, wallflowers and cyclamen are ready now. The team have been hard at work planting up our own autumn/winter hanging baskets and planted containers. They are a fantastic way to add instant colour to your garden. We offer a great range of basket and container plants grown for their beautiful foliage, adding interest to baskets and containers throughout the autumn and winter months.

We have taken delivery of a fantastic range of fruit and ornamental trees. Our new collection offers a diverse selection of high-quality trees that are perfect for enhancing an orchard or garden.

Our outdoor plant area is brimming with a colourful selection of shrubs that bring autumn colour to your garden. These shrubs are perfect for adding seasonal beauty.

We have potted hedging plants ideal for creating a natural border or as a privacy screen. Bare root hedging will be available in late November. The glasshouses are looking colourful with many different seasonal plants including heathers & skimmias.

Autumn Garden Care

Autmn is traditionally a time to tidy up the garden and prepare it for winter. After such a dry & hot summer, the lawn is desperate for feeding with an autumn lawn care product. We stock Westland after cut all in one autumn lawn feed & moss killer. This will encourage root growth, enabling the grass to absorb more nutrients without producing soft leaf growth which can be damaged by frosts and will kill the moss. We have a range of hand tools to help you tackle those autumn jobs such as clearing leaves, planting bulbs, harvesting fruit and pruning. We have a various types of gloves, wellies & cloggies too.

Animal Care

Our bird care section is well stocked for autumn and winter. We have plenty of specialist bird feeds in a range of sizes including bulk bags which are excellent value for money. We have various bird feeders, suitable for different types of feed including squirrel proof options. We stock a range of nest boxes, bird tables & habitats for bugs, bees & hedgehogs which make great gifts too.

We would like to thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you soon.

With our best wishes.
