- Shrubs

We are now growing a range of interesting shrubby plants alongside the herbaceous perennials we have always produced. Larger size bamboos will also be included here.  Unfortunately because of the larger size container and their bulky growth we cannot offer all of them for sale by mail order.  Our current availability is below and if they are available for mail order there is a Buy Now option.

Please note that most Shrubs count as 2 or more plants (because of their size) when working out the P&P that you will pay. This usually makes no difference to orders within the UK but will cost more for export orders.
