Thanks, quick delivery, excellent service, nice tree.

Whether you're a fan of slightly haphazard, busy cottage garden arrangements or structure and minimalism in your garden, the fact is that there is always a window for pretty plants and pretty flowers in any planting scheme.
From delicate pretty pink flowers to boldly coloured blooms, our selection offers something for everyone, including a few RHS plants awarded merit status! More...
The term 'pretty plants' does, of course, encompass a huge variety of flowers, shrubs and herbs, and is to some extent entirely subjective too! But here at Victoriana, we're happy to include those pretty plants and flowers that might be found in the archetypal English cottage garden under this banner - plants that are delicate, busy, sometimes haphazard, colourful and often highly scented to boot.
Many of our pretty plants are old favourites, those that would have been found in a garden 50 or even 100 years ago! We are far from Luddites however, and have happily included newer varieties of pretty plants and pretty flowers that we feel meet our stringent criteria for growing excellence - which is why you may find a few hybrids / F1 varieties in this category. And look out for the RHS merit award in the product descriptions - many of these prestigious plants have made our listings too.
All pretty flowers and plants included in this listing are supplied directly from our family-run nursery in Kent, typically either as compost block-grown plants or supplied in small pots. Your Victoriana Nursery Gardens order will always be packed carefully at the last possible moment to ensure that your delivery arrives on time, with the freshest and most viable, damage-free produce.
We've invested a great deal of time in choosing only the best varieties of pretty flowers for our customers, so you can be assured that whatever pretty plants you put in your basket, you can expect great growing performance.
