Early Spring Post

Well its been quite a cold Spring here, we still haven't got any flowers open yet and I think this is one of our slowest years. I remember 8 or 9 years ago we had our first Sarracenia purpurea venosa flower open the middle of February! I can see any flowers opening till at least another three weeks. Sadly I have had to cancel the Ascot Spring flower show due to this. Which we would have been attending on the 13th-15th of April.

We have been busy on the nursery dividing and potting up sales plants, also potting on some of our large display plants for the flower shows and open weekends we will be holding and attending this year. which will include:
- Spring open weekend 28th-29th April
- Malvern Spring flower show 10th-13th May
- Chelsea flower show 22nd-26th May
- BBC Gardeners World 14th-17th June
- Hampton Court 2nd-8th July
We will not be attending Tatton Park flower show but will be having an open weekend 21st-22nd of July
- Wisley flower show 4th-9th September

We have been updating the website and will continue to do this through to entire growing season
