Plan a visit

Come up the hill, or ask first.

Open every day but three. Ask about a plant before you come, book a delivery or reserve a tree, and we answer the same day.

What can we help with?

For the delivery charge: £8 within five miles, £15 to twelve.

We deliver Tuesday to Saturday.

The size of the bed, the plant you are after, the height of the tree, how much is going where, and whether there are any steps.

There is no charge for asking. Your details are used only for this: see our privacy policy.

Before you come

Four things worth bringing.

A photograph of the bed

Taken from the house, so that we can see how much sun gets to it and what it needs to look good from the window.

A sick leaf

In a sandwich bag, please, and sealed, so that nothing in it can spread. Most problems can be diagnosed from one leaf and three questions.

Some measurements

Length, width and depth for a planter; the height of the ceiling for a Christmas tree. The soil calculator will do the rest.

An old blanket

For the boot, because compost escapes. If it is too big for the car, the van runs Tuesday to Saturday.
