Welcome to The Place for Plants
The Plant Centre, Garden and Café are open daily, including Sundays, 10am-5pm.
We welcome visitors all year around and have an extensive range of plants, in particular trees and fruit trees at this time of year. Please do not hesitate to call 01206 299224 to check we have a specific plant.
Due to the recent wet weather, we plan to reopen the garden on 28 March..
"My plants were well-packaged, have arrived safely, look very healthy and have now been planted. Thank you for a very efficient service!"
"I came with a friend to visit your garden & arboretum for the first time to catch some autumnal colour. From the moment we entered to the moment we left, it was a lovely experience. The lady who took our money was so helpful & as it was our first visit gave us a detailed map & explained everything including safety as paths could be wet & slippery. We had a lovely time wandering around taking photos of things that caught our eye. The icing on the cake (excuse the pun) was the cuppa & slice of the wonderful lemon drizzle cake in your cafe to refresh us after our walk. I will definitely be visiting again in the spring."
"Stopped off whilst on tour of the area. Great welcome from staff. Wonderful plants, and most importantly great cafe. Would recommend to everyone passing through the area."
"Just to say how delighted I am with the tree (Malus Jelly King). It is exactly what I was looking for.

"I just wanted to say a big thank you for my delivery today; only requested this morning and it was dropped off at the end of the day. An excellent service much appreciated, and I will definitely use again! "
"At all stages, the way in which you dealt with my requirements was outstanding, extraordinarily personable and prompt, and the expertise with which the shrubs were packed and the quality and size of every one of these overjoyed me."

"Liz and I so enjoyed Rupert’s amazing tour of your fabulous garden. Rupert’s knowledge of all the trees is fantastic and he combines the talk with humour which was very well received!
We came to last year’s excellent tour and just wanted to repeat the experience and we were certainly not disappointed.
We then enjoyed the pruning demonstration and here again we were so impressed with his knowledge.
We are now about to plant the lovely Malus Transitoria crab apple tree which is in beautiful condition.
This a most wonderful plant centre- Thank you again for a most enjoyable time."
