Browsing Plants and Products

You can look at our plants in a variety of ways.

Individually. If you know the plant you want to look at simply type its name (or part of name) in the "plant search" box and click "go". This will take you straight to the plant.
By category. Click on your category of choice on the left of every page.
By appearance. If you are searching for a particular "effect" or "look" e.g a lush jungle, then click on the "jungle effect" button on the top left of every page. This will automatically take you to a list of plants that exhibit lush tropical foliage and flowers, which are also tolerant of wetter conditions. Alternatively click the "arid effect" button to go straight to plants tolerant of drier conditions and of a Mediterranean or desert appearance.
If you are looking for plants for a particular spot in your garden, click "advanced search". This will take you to a page where you can filter and narrow your search by hardiness, light requirements, visual effect and water requirements.

Icons

Each plant has a number of icons relating to hardiness, water requirements, visual "effect" etc. Hover your mouse over these icons to find out what they mean.

Plant availability

We do not have all plants in stock all of the time. If a plant you are interested in is not available or sold out you can ask to be notified when it next becomes available by clicking the "notify" button on that plant's page. As soon as we know when the plant will be available again you will be sent a notification email.

A printable availability list can be downloaded at any time by clicking the "current availability" button.
