Grown by Us
UK grown: a label we are immensely proud to attach to the ever-evolving collection grown by us. We are obsessed with producing as many of our own plants as we can, bringing together a fusion of exotic, evergreen and deciduous specimens from Europe, Asia, Africa, North and South America – and Australia. You might be familiar with a number, while others are far rarer and unusual. Some are downright risky – should you share our enthusiasm for a challenge. All the plants categorised began life in our propagation laboratory, mist, fog, and liner houses. They have then been grown, trained, and shaped by our team here at the nursery into a range of sizes and exciting forms. Some you can drive away with, and others are considerably more mature. A growing number come from our production field where we are cultivating more of the multi-stems, blobs, and specialist homegrown Niwaki that we want to share with you.
