The home of sustainable and ecological planting
Plants sold according to the conditions that suit them best: dry, shade, general, damp. Right plant, right place!
Beth began her nursery in the 1960s following numerous requests from friends and family for her ‘unusual’ plants.
The vast majority of the plants we sell are grown here in our nursery. We use peat-free compost and are working hard to ensure we recycle all plastic pots.
A wander around the nursery reveals over 2,000 varieties of irresistible plants, many of them propagated from plants in Beth’s garden and stock beds. Plants are carefully propagated by our expert team from cuttings, seed and divisions using traditional methods. Nearly all of our plants are grown on outside too, ensuring they are tough and garden-ready.
Raised benches of plants at the front of the nursery tend to show off some real showstoppers and can help give you ideas on how to group plants together, as well as displaying wildlife-attracting plants, climbers and alpine collections, while plants for shade can be found under cover of the polytunnels.
