Established 1949, Online since 1999
We are hedging plant and tree specialists with a peat free nursery in Somerset.
We grew almost all our own plants near Castle Cary for fifty years, and today we source bareroot plants from our trusted wholesale growers; most of them are British, some are from Holland, Europe's horticultural heart.
Our big, climate controlled storage shed receives large deliveries of bareroot plants in one go, keeping them in ideal conditions before delivery.
Unlike a small nursery that has to grow its own stock in one location, we can source a wider range of plants from the best areas for growing each species, from growers who specialise in them, all at competitive prices.
There are so many lovely trees, hedges, roses, shrubs, and herbaceous plants, and the more permanent an element of your garden is, the more it matters to choose something you'll love, or that will make someone else happy, or add value to a property, or support songbirds for a dawn chorus outside your window, or get you a nice Countryside Stewardship government grant...
Our advice pages help you evaluate your options, and offer suggestions if you just need "something private that grows on clay".
Subscribe to our newsletter so we can send you sly discount codes and whimsical garden ideas. No one else has to know.
If you need help with an order, such as where it is, most people find it more convenient to drop us a message and let us get back to you, sometimes our lines are busy on 01963 359 444.
We have a general advice section for plants we sell, a blog for garden chit-chat and some recipes, and you won't go wrong by looking your question up on the Royal Horticultural Society, and the BBC's Gardeners World.
