From the first enquiry to final delivery, our friendly and experienced team is on hand to guide you through the process. We pride ourselves on building long-term relationships, offering honest advice and making sure every order is handled with care, attention and a personal touch.

Our huge range of plants is ever expanding and encompasses both traditional favourites and latest ‘must haves’.  We frequently introduce new specialities from selected plant breeding programmes.

Herbaceous perennials

Herbaceous perennials are at the core of Green Nursery. We have been growing them for over forty years, and that depth of experience shows in both the quality and range.

Our focus is on plants that work for designed landscapes and are chosen for reliability, long seasonal interest and ease of care for the end client.

Our range is constantly evolving, incorporating proven favourites alongside the latest cultivars.

In-house production is grown on in peat-free compost and supplied in 2, 3 and 5 litre sizes, with additional sourcing available through trusted specialist growers.

Design with confidence

Whether you need dependable planting for large schemes or something more specific for a detailed design, you’ll find a friendly, knowledgeable team ready to help here at the nursery.

Ornamental Grasses

Ornamental grasses remain a core part of modern planting schemes, and a firm favourite with designers and landscapers. We grow and source grasses that add movement, texture and structure while remaining reliable and low maintenance in real landscapes.

Grasses bring year-round interest, from fresh spring growth through to winter seedheads, and work beautifully to add height, contrast and layering alongside bolder planting. Many varieties suit contemporary and naturalistic designs, with a wide choice of evergreen and deciduous forms, excellent drought tolerance and strong resistance to pests and disease.

They also play an important role in supporting wildlife, providing seed for birds and shelter for insects and small mammals.

Our range is grown on in peat-free compost.

Where needed, we can also source grasses, with sizes available from 9cm pots through to large specimen plants up to 150 litres.

Ferns and Tree Ferns

Ferns and tree ferns have become an increasingly important part of contemporary garden design. We offer a versatile range chosen for structure, texture and long-term reliability in designed landscapes.

With forms suited to damp or dry conditions, shade or sun, ferns offer exceptional flexibility within planting schemes. Their wide variety of leaf shapes and growth habits allows them to soften hard landscaping, add architectural structure and create layered, naturalistic planting. Many varieties are evergreen, providing year-round interest with minimal maintenance, while remaining tough and resilient once established.

Our selection is grown on in peat-free compost. We can source additional fern varieties from 9cm through to 12 litre sizes. We also stock Tree Ferns throughout the season in a range of heights. Sourced responsibly and all carry certification.

Alpines and Living Roof Plants

Originating from mountainous regions, alpines cope well with cold winters and exposed locations. They are ideal for gravel gardens, rockeries, green roofs and containers, where their compact forms and seasonal interest add texture and detail with minimal aftercare.

We grow a range in peat-free compost and can source a wide selection of additional material, including sedum and living roof mats, to support both small-scale designs and larger specification-led projects.

Potted and Loose Bulbs

Bulbs are a key design element for adding seasonal colour, structure and rhythm to planting schemes. We supply a broad bulb range that delivers impact from early spring through to late summer.

From delicate Snowdrops and Iris reticulata to bold, architectural Allium, bulbs can be used in borders and containers. Used well, they provide long-lasting interest with minimal maintenance.

We offer an extensive range of potted bulbs, all grown in peat-free compost, alongside a wide selection of loose bulbs stocked and sourced seasonally from August to November to support large schemes and detailed planting plans.

Trees and Shrubs

Trees provide the backbone of a landscape, adding structure, height and long-term impact. They create focal points, define spaces and support wildlife while delivering year-round interest through blossom, foliage, bark and fruit.

We hold a carefully selected range in stock and can source an extensive choice to suit any design brief. Our offering includes standards, feathered trees, fastigiate, multi-stems, and architectural shapes such as pleached form, parasol and box head.

Available year-round in containerised, rootball and bare-root formats (in season), our trees are selected to work reliably for designers and landscapers from specification through to establishment.

Shrubs form the backbone of garden planting, providing structure, scale and year-round interest. We offer a wide range of shrubs selected for reliability, versatility and long-term performance.

From foliage, flowers and berries to scent and winter stem colour, shrubs contribute interest across the seasons. They can be used as ground cover, stand-alone specimens, screening, or in containers, with many varieties offering low-maintenance solutions while supporting wildlife.

We grow and source an extensive range available all year round, supplied as containerised plants, root ball or bare root (in season), in a variety of shapes and sizes to suit different design and specification needs.

Hedging & Screening

Hedging plants provide privacy, shelter and long-term structure within the landscape. At Green Nursery, we supply designers and landscapers with dependable hedging suited to both formal and natural planting schemes.

From low, formal evergreen hedges to taller screening and native boundary planting, hedging adds definition while supporting wildlife, particularly where British native species are used.

We offer hedging all year round, available as containerised plants and root ball, bare root in season. In recent years trough hedging has become popular for creating instant impact. We can source a huge range of material and all sizes.

Topiary

Topiary adds structure, elegance and a strong sense of design to the garden. It creates clear focal points with year-round form and interest. Suitable for both formal, classical layouts and clean contemporary schemes, topiary brings definition and balance to planting designs.

We stock and source a wide range, from simple balls and domes through to larger, distinctive specimen pieces.

Herbs

We grow and source a wide range of culinary, aromatic and ornamental herbs.

Grown and picked fresh, herbs offer improved flavour for cooking and drinks, along with the satisfaction of harvesting straight from the garden. Many varieties are also excellent for pollinators, adding both visual interest and ecological value.

Herbs are highly versatile and can be used successfully in borders, containers or raised beds, making them suitable for gardens of all sizes and styles.

Roses

Roses are a timeless choice, valued for their beauty, fragrance and long flowering season. We offer reliable rose varieties selected for strong performance and visual impact.

Flowering abundantly from early summer, roses are available in a wide range of colours, forms and growth habits, with many varieties offering exceptional fragrance. They work equally well as focal plants, within mixed borders or trained against structures to add height and interest.

We grow a selection of containerised roses, that are 100% peat-free. Potted roses are available all year round and bare root during the autumn/winter season.  Our range includes climbers, shrubs, ramblers and container varieties, and we can also source genuine David Austin roses to meet specific design requirements.

Climbers

Climbers are an effective way to bring life, colour and fragrance to vertical spaces. At Green Nursery, we supply designers and landscapers with climbers that add impact while making the most of available space.

Used on walls, fences, trellis, obelisks, arbours and arches, climbers can soften structures, create privacy, provide shade and help reduce noise. They are particularly valuable in smaller gardens, where vertical planting maximises space without compromising design intent.

We stock and source a wide range of climbers, available as single cane plants as well as trained forms on arches and trellis to suit different layouts and project requirements.

Succulents

Succulents bring character, structure and a contemporary feel to planting schemes. We offer a distinctive range of succulents chosen for their architectural form, texture and ease of care.

From familiar favourites such as Aloe and Echeveria through to larger statement specimens like Aeoniums, succulents work well in containers, courtyard gardens and modern designs where low maintenance and strong visual impact are key.

We stock and source a varied selection, in a range of sizes, form and application for both indoor and outdoor use where conditions allow.

Exotics

Tropical and hardy exotics are increasingly popular in contemporary garden design. We can supply exotic plants that bring a bold, architectural feel to outdoor spaces.

As our climate continues to change, exotics are playing a growing role in introducing a jungle-inspired aesthetic to gardens. Chosen for their striking foliage, strong form and vibrant blooms, they create drama and visual impact within mixed planting schemes or as standout specimens.

We stock and source a wide range of both hardy and tender exotic species, allowing flexibility across different garden styles, locations and levels of exposure.

Annuals

Annuals bring immediate colour and seasonal impact to planting schemes. We supply designers and landscapers with a carefully selected range suited to containers, baskets and borders.

Our seasonal patio plants provide months of colour with minimal effort, while our range of fashionable hardy annuals reflects current planting trends, including varieties often seen at Chelsea Flower Show. Umbellifers such as Orlaya grandiflora and Ammi majus remain popular choices for adding a romantic feel to designs.

Alongside our core range, we can also contract grow to order to support specific schemes, quantities or planting schedules.

Aquatic and Water Marginals

Aquatic and marginal plants play an essential role in pond and water feature design. We can offer plants that combine visual interest with practical benefits.

As well as adding structure, foliage and seasonal flowers, aquatic plants help create habitat for wildlife and contribute to water quality through natural filtration. Used well, they bring balance and softness to ponds, rills and natural water features.

We are able to source a wide range of aquatic plants, including oxygenators, marginals and water lilies, to support both decorative and ecologically focused designs.

Conservatory and Indoor Plants

Indoor plants have become an increasingly important part of modern living and working spaces. We supply designers and landscapers with indoor plants chosen for both aesthetic impact and wellbeing benefits.

Used thoughtfully, indoor plants help create calmer, healthier environments. They are proven to reduce stress, improve wellbeing and boost productivity, while also offering practical benefits such as air purification, increased humidity and reduced fatigue.

We have access to a wide and diverse range of indoor plants, varying in size, leaf shape and exotic flowering.
