Nursery has expanded

The nursery has expanded over the last few months and I hope we will be forgiven a little own trumpet blowing but it does look gorgeous – if you haven’t paid us a visit yet this year I think you will be in for a treat. We have such an amazing variety of plants now and a much better balance of hard stuff (hardy, sharp, evergreens) and soft stuff (hardy and tender, luscious, deciduous) and big stuff (huge palms, yuccas) and small stuff (ferns, perennials etc) than in previous years. We have already had a couple of containers of plants from Spain this spring- Yuccas, Olives, Palms, Callistemons and some interesting and beautiful exotic trees and shrubs. Of course we still have a huge range of Cannas, Gingers and Aroids. We are now the largest specialist nursery in East Anglia and you would have to be a very hard person to please if you didn’t find plenty here to drool over.
We are working on a modest hospitality area so during your visit you will be able to fuel up on tea and coffee. This should be completed by mid June.
Look out for the review of Urban Jungle, written by Will Giles in the Eastern Daily Press on Saturday 26th May. Will Giles is one of the pioneers of the new wave of exoticism and has his garden open to the public during the summer months. This is an extraordinary and inspirational garden and we highly recommend a visit. http://www.exoticgarden.com/ If you haven’t been to Urban Jungle recently then please do so soon. You will be staggered by the diversity of our stock but don’t be daunted - we are here to offer assistance.
