- Shrubs

We are growing an increasing range of shrubby plants - because you keep asking for them!  Larger size bamboos are also included here. Unfortunately because of the larger size container and their bulky growth we often cannot offer 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 will often make no difference to orders within the UK but will cost more for export orders.
