Bedding Plants

We have been growing quality bedding plants for over 30 years and they are still a big part of our nursery production. 

Each year we grow hundreds of thousands of quality patio and basket plants, across hundreds of varieties. It takes minutes to bring plants down from our nursery into the sales area, guaranteeing that they are wonderfully fresh. 

Summer patio and basket plants are so versatile, they provide colour from late spring right through to the first frosts. They are ideal for beds, borders, patios, tubs, pots, hanging baskets and window boxes. Popular species are impatiens, geraniums, fuchsias, begonias and petunias. 

Most Important!
Be very aware of the temperatures early in the season, frosts will kill these tender plants, so do not put them outside until all risk of frost has passed - probably around mid-May.
