I just wanted to say a huge thank you for sending out a replacement batch of Cherry Plum Hedging last week, following the unfortunate non-arrival of my first order. Your wonderful service is very much appreciated. Many thanks once again.

Pond Side Plants
‘Pondside plants’ is perhaps a somewhat generic term for a broad range of plants that thrive in moist, boggier conditions that can be prone to waterlogging at times, makin them the perfect planting choice for close proximity to a pond or bog garden. These pondside plants and bog plants easily help to brighten up those ‘difficult’ damp spaces, and the varieties available in this listing include a range of dramatic, eye-popping colours and structures, and more muted, subtle but equally beautiful plants and shrubs, as well as striking rushes that will prove beneficial to many species of wild life.
