Seasons at the Nursery
March, April, May
Spring is the season of new beginnings. Perennials are starting to reappear with the warmer weather. We have an extensive range of bedding throughout the spring – Starting with potted bulbs in March through to summer bedding from mid-April onwards. These are great for filling any holes in the garden with bright colour.
Our full range of perennial, shrubs, roses, herb & vegetable plants begin to fill the sales area from late March. Spring is the perfect time to tend to the garden, ready for your enjoyment through the summer months. We can advise on the best plants for your garden or allotment.
Throughout Spring we will have a range of planted baskets and pots, perfect for a small gift for Easter or Mother’s Day.
June, July, August
The nursery becomes full of colour over the summer months. We have instant summer colour ready for your garden from perennials, patio and bedding plants to our ranges of roses and shrubs. We have a large range of potted fruits bushes and trees established for fruiting in the coming years.
Summer is a time for harvesting your produce but it is also a great time for planting your winter vegetables and this year we have a brand new range of potatoes for Christmas harvest. These will be available in June.
You can find us at lots of shows through the summer, we attend many local events as well as larger gardening shows all over the country. Check our Show Diary for the latest lists of show we are attending this year.
September, October, November
Autumn is the season of preparation. Preparing your garden for the approaching winter, and it is the perfect time to plant spring bulbs and winter bedding for colour later. We have a large range of spring bulbs and flower seed for flower next spring.
We still have many late autumn flowering perennials along with perennials ready to get established over winter for colour in the spring and summer. In Autumn we stock a range of ornamental trees ready for the garden that look gorgeous with the changing of leaf colours.
Don’t forget to enjoy the colours of Autumn. Whether it is the second flowering of your perennials in the borders, the changing colours of the hedges and trees or the flowers on the winter flowering shrubs and perennials.
December, January, February
We have a lot to offer at the nursery over winter. At the end of November, we start selling our locally grown Christmas trees, along with our Holly Wreaths and Christmas plants. We stock a range of natural Christmas sundries, ideal for creating your own wreath or festive decorations.
From December we stock our full range of bare root fruit bushes and trees, as well as bare root hedging and ornamental trees. Throughout the season we have winter bedding and pot plants – Cyclamen, Primroses and Pansies.
In the New Year we start stocking our vegetable and flower seed ready for sowing in the early spring as well as our range of seed potatoes, onion sets and shallots.
Winter is an important season to look after the wildlife in your garden. We have a wide range of wild bird food and feeders.
