You know how every year we like to build a Remembrance day display in the Garden Centre? Although 2020 has been a year many of us would like to forget, we've got plans for a very fitting tribute for our display in November 🤔 Which is where you come in! If you have wool in any of these colours, and would like to contribute to our efforts, we'd love to enlist your help. We're looking for knitted or crocheted 2" poppies in any of these colours (without the black centres please - self-coloured will be fine)
Just pop them into little bags and leave them at the information desk. Patterns available online (Pinterest is great) and the more plain they are, the better. When we take the display down towards the end of November, we'll donate the poppies to anyone with a worthy cause in mind, or can sew them into blankets for any relevant charities. Thanks in advance for your help, you were amazing last year so we know you'll take part again ;-)
You know it's summer when the Hibiscus plants come in - we have Oiseau Blue, Totus Albus (white) and Woodbridge, Leopoldo and Ardens (pink) varieties. Hardy 3L plants for £12.99.
They are beautiful plants with the most gorgeous flowers which come out every year beginning in July and not stopping until October. Easy to grow and low maintenance, it is one of the most prolific flowering shrubs out there.
This deciduous shrub is fully hardy, yet has an exotic feel to it. It will be equally at home in the herbaceous border as it is in a tropical-style garden or large patio planter (you could even pretend you were in Spain 😘)
It will thrive in a well drained sunny spot, but is very tolerant of virtually all garden positions except deep shade and waterlogged soils.
🐦🐦🐦 Our birdcare section has been restocked - you'll find it in the aquatics section of the garden centre 😘
View our furniture, barbecues, chimeneas and water features here before you visit - we only have one left of certain items now. so if you're thinking of getting ready for when the sun makes a comeback, you need to be quick!

The Restaurant has re-opened today and they have done an amazing job with the changes they've put in place to keep everyone safe - please watch their videos so you know what to expect, and bear in mind that there is now a completely separate entrance and exit.
We're still restricted on numbers in the Garden Centre. Pet Shop and Aquaria, so whilst the Restaurant can allow family groups, we're still unable to for the time being (we'll update our page just as soon as we can relax the restrictions, but please bear with us for the time being)
Please visit the Restaurant's page for all the info you'll need before you visit 👍
