Magnolias
Magnolias are our speciality. We stock a fantastic slection that we are always looking to expand. We graft in winter using the hot pipe method for reliable union formation, and in summer with side veneer grafts in humidity tents. Our rootstock of choice is the highly adaptable M. kobus, which naturally grows in a wide range of conditions, meaning that your Magnolias will thrive wherever you plant them.
Woody plants
We grow an ever expanding selection of peat free woody plants. We graft Malus and Acers in winter, with budding and side veneer grafting in summer respectively. We currently propagate around 3000 trees and shrubs annually by cuttings using mist propagation, many of which are unique to us. Our range includes great selections of Hydrangea, Viburnum, and Aronia.
Herbaceous and more
As well as our wonderful woodies, we grow a big selection of herbaceous plants, grasses and ferns. All our plants are chosen by us because frankly, we just love them, and want to share them with you. Whether you’re after rarities, curiosities, or simply good doers, we’re on it!
Passion and skill
We’ve been growing for a long time, and we believe our skill matched with our passion for plants is reflected best in the quality and selection that we offer. Our plants are grown by us from seed, divisions, cuttings, budding, and grafting, using traditional and modern methods. We use peat free compost mixes, and are committed to producing plants as sustainably as possible.
