Think of a Tree or Shrub that grows outside, any plant, no matter how obscure or how large, whether it be it a hedging plant, perennial, ornamental shrub, climber, palm tree, conifer, topiary plant or tree fern, we probably grow it here and with plenty to choose from.
If that wasn’t enough, that plant would be fresh from our own nursery, of the highest quality and the price would be half what you would expect to pay elsewhere. That’s if you could find one somewhere else to compare the price with.
Check it out on our site we don’t hide our prices.
A personal note from our founder and chairman Stephen Watmore:
Internet shopping is a great way to buy for all those who know exactly what they want or where prices and standards are fairly obvious, but there is no substitute for the visual stimulation of a visit to the nursery or a one to one chat about specific specimens. We all know that the internet has given rise to the garage based carpet-baggers that get away with a swish website hiding the fact that they have never put hands in compost or know dandelions from daffodils.
“passed straight back to the customer”
We grow all our plants through at least one stage, if not several stages, of their production. It gives us the control of quality, health and selection as well as ensuring that the price of everything we sell is kept as low as possible. Any cost reductions we make as a result of the economies of scale are passed straight back to the customer. It has always been our policy, and, along with the aforementioned important controls, has been the secret of our meteoric rise to fame achieved over the past 20 years. See for yourself below.
“a pointer to get me hooked”
When I first got interested in plants for our first home the Latin and common names were completely meaningless to me. Blinded by information overload it stopped me from gardening. What I needed was a bit of a pointer to get me hooked. To get you started we now offer a border planning service. You tell us the answers to what you want from a border and we put you a scheme together. There is small charge to stop the time wasters which you can get a portion back of if you order the scheme from us. You can find this at http://www.shrubsdirect.com/designer
I hope you enjoy using our site
