We are a small family-run Nursery
specialising in Bamboo. We currently stock around
125 species and cultivars, most of which are readily
available or which can be propagated to order
depending on the time of the year. We propagate all
of our own stock and ask only that you be patient
for some of the rarer species.
You are welcome to visit us on Saturdays from 9am
to 5pm or at other times by appointment.
Advice is always available so give us a call if you
need any help.
Our interest in Bamboo began some 10 years ago when
Bamboo first became a household name. As a Landscape
Company too we wanted to incorporate some of the
fabulous varieties available into some of our own
designs and projects. At that time few of the lesser
known Bamboos were available and still aren’t.
Everywhere had Phyllastachys Nigra and Ph. Aurea.
Still great stalwarts but hardly adventurous. Our
collection has grown along with our love of this
versatile and awe inspiring plant. Despite the
common myth that all Bamboo is rampant and takes
over the garden there are some wonderful species and
cultivars for the smaller garden, courtyard, and for
planters and tubs.
We have a juvenile collection planted out of around
60 species and hope one day to create a more
spectacular garden. In the meantime we will keep
seeking new plants and hope that you too will
discover the joy of Bamboo growing.
Aside from our interest in Bamboo we also keep
around 40 varieties of Fern. We find these simpatico
with the growing of Bamboo. Their foliage being so
varied and versatile. They create a wonderful
softness to any garden and despite popular opinion
that Ferns only thrive in wet areas there are entire
species that do well in sunnier, drier spots as long
as they are out of the direct sun.
Our general interest in plants has led us into
growing small batches of unusual trees and shrubs
too as well as Canna Lillys, Ginger Lillys ,
Dakturas and Agarves. We also stock Phormiums,
Trachycarpus Fortuneii and Tree Ferns. Our plant
selection is always changing and always growing so
do not hesitate to call us if you are looking for
something a little different. If we do not stock it
we will find it for you.
As we are not a retail Nursery opening regularly we
are happy to mail order or deliver plants directly
to you. We also offer a planting service within the
London and South East with expert advice on all
aspects of gardening too. Please do not hesitate to
contact us if we can be of help. |
