Gardening advice
We don't just sell plants: we grow them too! Being hands-on means our staff are well placed to give advice on which plants will do best for you, where best to plant them, and how to care for them too.
We share lots of seasonally-relevant tips and advice on our Facebook page, our YouTube channel and in our email newsletters, meaning you get the right advice at the right time. Follow the links below to find out more.

INSPIRATION AND ASSISTANCE
The Garden Area
Our Garden Area is a space for us to trial plants and plant-care techniques, to showcase our favourites and - with the Designer Bed - provide planting inspiration.
Most of the beds get changed at least once a year, so the garden is always worth a walk through to get new ideas! |
Planting Themes
You want to put your own stamp on your garden, and probably have an idea of the look and feel you want to achieve - our lists can help you with the specifics!
You will also find various themed displays on the nursery to help you pick the perfect combinations. |
Gardening Services
If your garden is in need of a revamp, a facelift, or you just want a new look, we can help with everything from plants to designs.
In autumn and winter we can carry out site visits and work with you to help you fulfill your vision, whether that is pruning and clearing or adding new planting. |
PROBLEM-SOLVING PLANTS!
|
Gardening always has its challenges, but we're here to help, whether you want to know which of our plants will thrive in the shade, what climbers you can grow on your north-facing wall, or what plants will survive the legions of slugs that come out at night.
If you have any tips to share, please leave a comment! All the lists below are available at Katie's Garden for you to use at the nursery and to take away. Click on the icons to go through to the list. |
