About Us
We do things a little differently. Rather than a traditional retail setup, we operate by appointment only, giving you the space and time to explore our plants without pressure. Each visit is relaxed and personal, with guidance if you'd like it. Once you've found the right plants for your garden, you can either take them home on the day or arrange local collection. We're here to make the process feel thoughtful, enjoyable, and rooted in care.

How We Work
All plants are propagated and grown here in the Weald of Kent, so they’ll bloom at the same time in your garden each year. They’re grown in living compost for better health and biodiversity. We minimize plastic waste by reusing pots and only supplying labels if needed. These hardy perennials stay outdoors all winter with no polytunnels, greenhouses, or chemical aids. You’ll get honest gardening advice, and consultations are available. We accept cash/bank transfer; cards add 2%.

Where We Are
We’re located in Cranbrook, tucked away in the heart of Kent, which is just a couple of minutes away from one of the most famous gardens in the world, Sissinghurst Castle Garden. We absolutely love gardening in the Weald of Kent, and are happy to show you how we grow our plants in this beautiful part of England. We have various types of soil on our property and can provide advice whether you’re on clay, loam, sandy or ericaceous soil, or even if you aren’t quite sure what soil you’ve got!
