We hope you enjoy browsing our wonderful range of herbaceous perennials. No garden should be without them as they are invaluable for adding colour, form and texture, as well as attracting bees, butterflies and other pollinating insects. You'll find that we offer a good mix: some are much-loved and well-tried but there is also a generous sprinkling of new and recent introductions. Our containerised plants are not only top quality and disease-free but they are all lovingly tended and watered by hand.
If possible do come and visit us and you will find our herbaceous plants beautifully displayed in our inspirational sales area and see many of them growing in our beautiful nursery borders. Expert gardening advice is always freely given. Please note that all plants are subject to availability and most are seasonal. If you are looking for specific varieties please telephone before setting off on your journey. In addition to the plants included in our Online Shop, we stock many other varieties. If you can't see what you're looking for, do please ask and we may be able to help.
