WELCOME to our 2010 website. We’ve listed many new varieties that we have trialled during the season, and are happy to offer these in this year’s list.
Like many growers, we had what could be described as a good year overall: an encouraging start after a very cold winter, Easter sales strong with the Bank holidays falling during April, not too hot during late Spring, and a reasonable amount of rain.
The credit crunch did not appear to be too much of a problem if the retailers were sensible with their ordering. The Euro exchange rate has been in our favour, making importing plants expensive and more British Garden Centres are looking for “British Grown” plants.
As a family business, we still offer plants all through the year in one and two litre pots, large bespoke labels in every pot, same week delivery on orders over 24 trays placed by 5pm on Monday, and one price for each size of pots.
I hope that with the strong sales for 2009 we will not see growers over produce for 2010. Our production remains the same at 2.8 million 1 litre plants, and 200,000 2 litres. We offer these for sale with no pre-ordering necessary and deliver to all areas on the British Isles. |
