About Us

Our Philosophy

We firmly believe that Gardening is for Everyone! That's right; you do not even need a garden to get growing. Many of our plants can be grown on balconies, small patios and decking, so you can catch the growing bug, and even grow your own freshest fruit and vegetables too.

We speak in plain English. Sometimes gardening can be a confusing maze of latin names and strange words and can be confusing or off-putting - we simplify all and remove all the jargon, and give you down to earth advice on what to grow - and how!

We will show you how to get success from our products through our videos and care instructions. We have only chosen plants that are easy to grow and will give successful results with a minimum of experience. From the thousands of plants available, we have picked those that really work and perform. We have done the sifting and choosing for you, to bring you the best.

Our Nursery

We're lucky enough to have our very own nursery over here in rural Lincolnshire, Spanning across 11 acres, fully owned, new packhouse part funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development. Having our own nursery means we are constantly in close contact with our plants and we even grow some of our own, or pot on smaller plants to give them time to establish before becoming available to buy. This means we can guarantee your plants will thrive because we've grown them ourselves! We also source product locally, nationally and internationally to ensure we give our customers the best range, quality and value for money.

We have a highly experienced, talented and busy team over at the nursery who are busy packing and preparing for over 500,000 individual parcels this year - over 20,000 per week during our peak seasons! They'll insert Care Instructions with every live plant order including tips and tricks for best results. They'll then stamp your package with courier instructions to take care when handling and packaging is recyclable. We're always striving to reduce packaging waste and have removed the need for 30,000 extra boxes this year alone.

Our Delivery

Your order will normally be sent within 7-10 working days, subject to availability. We always send your plants nursery fresh in in perfect condition, so we avoid dispatching over Bank Holiday weekends and our experienced Nursery Manager may also hold your order if adverse weather is forecast that may affect your plants - however most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heat-waves!

Lightweight orders, like plug plants are often delivered to your door by Royal Mail, with your normal post. These usually arrive the day after sending for maximum freshness. Our plants are frequently sent in specially designed mini-greenhouses and strong boxes that have been designed for the purpose. Larger orders will be packed in boxes and sent via courier straight to your doorstep. Our nursery team are very experienced at packing live plant orders and have perfected how to ensure your plants arrive nursery fresh with the minimum number of issues.

We'll sometimes send your order in more than one consignment, especially if you order a number of products that are ready for despatch over an extended period, so that you can get your hands on your goodies as soon as they're available. Don't panic though - you will only be charged one lot of P&P!
