Plant Availability

By Mail Order

The plants we stock and sell are available at different times throughout the year, not necessarily all at the same time. When you send us a plant enquiry via a mail order form by post, a member of our staff will contact you to let you what is and isn’t available. You can now also order plants online. The stock on our online shop will be up to date.
