Plants
 
The nursery stocks all of the plants you need to add colour and structure to your garden throughout the year. This includes seasonal bedding plants for displays and containers, unusual herbaceous varieties, pre-packed and loose bulbs, a varied selection of roses (many of them highly scented old fashioned varieties), shrubs, ornamental and fruit trees suitable for the smaller garden.
 
We also sell a wide range of unusual hardy and half hardy annuals from our Home Grown range which are available on a seasonal basis.  Click on the listings below for more information.

Winter in the Garden 
 

Winter is the ideal time to assess your garden. Whilst most plants are in dormancy, apart from evergreen shrubs and the bright winter stems of Cornus and Salix, there is the opportunity to re-think your garden and plan any changes.  

 

Take stock of the plants that provide structure and make a note of any gaps or any new focal plants you would like to add. Plan any new herbaceous beds or borders, making sure you choose plants of different flowering times so that your borders always look beautiful.   If you plan now, you will be ready to get your new plants in as soon as the weather warms up.   Time spent now will reap the rewards later in the year.  

 
Garden Tasks for February 
 
 * Deadhead winter flowering pansies
 
* Move deciduous trees and shrubs (this should ideally have been done in November)
 
* Prune apple and pear trees before the buds form (i.e. before March)
 
* Pot up stored dahlia tubers and keep under cover in a glasshouse until the frosts have finished
 
* Sow early vegetables in the glasshouse and keep under cover until spring
 
* Sow hardy annuals and sweetpeas and keep in the glasshouse until the weather warms up
 
* Ventilate the glasshouse as often as possible but water plants as little as possible
 
* In mild conditions plant out early spring bulbs
