We are quite a way through show season, but we aren’t close to done yet! Here are the upcoming shows and dates we will be attending, so if you are as well, don’t forget to use our ‘click and collect’ service. 

Just order the plants you want on our website, choose the show you want to collect them at, and we’ll bring them ready for you to take home. This saves you on postage and ensures we bring the plants you are after for your garden!

Next up after this weeks RHS Tatton, is the Southport Flower Show from 15th to the 18th August. It’s a great trip to the seaside and to gather all your garden needs in one place.

We then have Wisley Autumn Show from the 3rd to the 8th of September. Wisley showcases top quality plants and nurseries and also has their own extensive gardens, making this a great day out.

Then it’s back to Harrogate for us for Harrogate Autumn Show from the 13th to the 15th September.

We’ve got our last Open Days of the season at the Nursery the 20th to the 22nd of September. We will be open 10am-4pm each day.

The last show of the season is Malvern Autumn Show from the 28th to the 29th September. Malvern show is a great one to end on, with gorgeous plants in Autumnal colours to inject some colour into your own gardens. Autumn is a great time to prepare your gardens ready for spring as well.

RHS Hampton Court Palace 2019

Posted on by

This year has been gorgeous weather for shows, and Hampton Court Palace was no exception. Sunny blue skies all the way. We got a lovely new gold medal for our display as well, so sunny times all around! Here’s a few photos of our display.


Pictured above are two popular plants Tiarella ‘Emerald Ellie’ and Heuchera ‘Tangerine Wave’.

Heuchera ‘Burgundy Bill’ is new this year, and we’ve still got some in stock! (just click the name to take you to the website). Beautiful large burgundy-red foliage, which glows bright in the sunlight. Pretty pure white flowers on tall burgundy-red stems great for cut flowers, show themselves well again the richer foliage. Bred by us to be hearty in British weather.

A Few Awards at BBC Gardeners World Live

Posted on by

We were both shocked and extremely pleased to get not only one award, but THREE at this years BBC Gardeners World Live.

We started with a Platinum Award, then we won the ‘Geoff Hamilton Award’ for the Best display in the Floral marquee, and we then won the Best ‘Display of Summer Flowering Plants’.

We are absolutely over the moon and can’t thank everyone enough in both the shows and our lovely customers for all the support. You make it all worth doing!
