Sunday morning was a lovely few hours to pause from the nursey with a Sunday morning Spring photography workshop with Phil Morley at Fullers Mil, our local @perennialgrbs garden. A treat to enjoy the garden early before it opens to the public. The garden was looking lovely, it shows the hard work of the team at the garden.
Two more dates this year to enjoy this special garden with Phil in July and September. I know when I have been before I've bumped into customers also on the workshop.

Recycling our used ink cartridges is always satisfying... We took advantage of @terracycleuk 's Earth Day offer and got 30% off a box for recycling pens this month. We used to recycle pens at a local stationery store, but sadly, they stopped that recently.
Did some multitasking Friday and dropped Mrs H off at Tesco for her weekly shop in Diss while collecting a car full of travel brochures. Thankfully, Mrs H's shopping did fit in the car, as she's 83 and didn't have a big shop 馃槀. We shred the brochures to use as packaging for dispatch orders.

With our bare root production, we often don't follow the rules, this would be a chance to see how we have planted our bare root, Irises. Honestly, It鈥檚 not how the books teach you. 馃馃摉
We move fields every year with our bare root range, making each year a different special experience. It鈥檚 almost addictive seeing them in flower and seeing them change over the weeks and days till they fade.
This would be an opportunity to see our rows of one year old bare root Irises in flower which we planted August/September 2025 will be available to pre-order from late June this year to arrive from September as bare root plants.聽
If you're in the horticultural industry and would like to know the first details when event details available.. comment below. Depending on the weather, the date can only be set about 10-14days before聽to make sure they are flowering.
Our 5 litre container range is gaining popularity yearly. These plants are mostly potted from our field-grown bare root range, making them ideal for planting. Plus, they're in peat-free - keep an eye out for new additions 馃 Check our availability lists for the upcoming 5 litre lines.
