OFF SEASON OPENING TIMES:
10:00 – 16:00
It’s been a very strange year. Bedding plant season traditionally runs until June, and although we’ll have stock (we’ll have a good range of salvia as well as a good variety of late perennial geranium, heuchera, delphinium, lupins and a few more robust perennials such as:
Alstromeria hybrids.
Going into July we’ll continue stocking flowering perennials, and this year we’ll bring forward our autumn supply of young shrubs- so there’ll be over 200 varieties throughout the summer.
A very different season! Not the stock we’ll expect, far less annual summer bedding, far fewer baskets, but we’ll have plants nevertheless.
So one way or another- there’ll be colour for your garden!
Social Distancing Measures:
We have screens and dividers, queuing measures, and will be consistently disinfecting our trolley handles. There is plenty of space.
Compost: sold out.
70L ornamental bark: £8.50
50L Manure: £5.00

NOTICE: WATTON NURSERY OPEN AS USUAL
The nursery is ready for the year, stocked, and looking great.
Plug plants and primulas will be here until the end of March.
In addition to this we have: Alpines, shrubs, climbers, hedging (some lovely new laurel and red robin bushes), a full stock of acers…
Acer dissectum Iniba Shidare
And there’s plenty more to come. We already have small perennials, and our larger stock (Lupins/heucheras, etc) will form a perfect complement from April onwards.
For sheer variety, this might be my favourite time of year. A few notable specimens to look out for (and hurry, they’ll be popular, I imagine), are as follows:
Nandina ‘Lemon and Lime’
Edgeworthia Chrysantha
And as I have promised a few of you, some smaller ones of these-
Euonymus alatus.
We also have some standard wisteria and lilac which I’m very excited about, and will probably photograph and post when they’re in flower, if they last on the nursery that long that is!
Until then, happy gardening!
Open from January 6th.
—————————————–
January and February tend to be quiet. I’ll update this post in February to let you all know what’s coming in March (We aim to have the nursery looking INCREDIBLE from the 1st March onward) but in the meantime here’s what you can expect=
Primula Acaulis (Common names include: polyanthus/primula/prims)
The first of these are flowering in the next few weeks, and as a stop-gap bedding before the Spring season arrives, they’re perfect; hardy, colourful, low maintenance.
Bulbs can still be planted. We’ve potted up tete a tete, snowdrops, bluebells, daffs, crocus and many more. These are rooting now, although can be set at any point right up until spring.
It’s a good time for hedging! Although the majority of our laurel/red robin comes late Feb, there’s still a bit of native beech and privet. Better, it’s cheap this time of year, and conditions for planting are perfect.
In the meantime we’ll be busy growing the first plugs for the Spring season.
Best,
Max.
Christmas trees are here!
Lots of large specimens this year, so if you have the space we’ll most likely try and tempt you…
Scottish grown, sustainable Nordman fir
As well as trees we have our freshly made wreathes, designed in-house, created with holly grown on the nursery.
Expect to see smaller gifts and decorations too, including:
Wicker tree skirts,
Tree stands,
Pot grown blue fir,
Cyclamen,
Pot grown holly,
and my favourite, the year round berries of skimmia parbella, a perfect festive garden addition:
As usual, on at least one of the weekends you can expect to see us with the bbq on (we might even have a spare hot dog if you’re lucky), and perhaps even some mulled wine.
See you soon, and Merry Christmas!
