Bedding plants
Our bedding plant collection features thousands of varieties grown on-site in a half-acre greenhouse. Available in individual pots or pre-planted containers, these seasonal plants provide instant colour for gardens and patios. We introduce new varieties regularly to ensure gardeners have access to the latest horticultural trends and cultivars suited to local growing conditions.
Rose courtyard
The Rose Courtyard showcases over a thousand roses across multiple varieties including hybrid teas, floribundas, and climbing roses. Stocked annually in spring, this display area allows customers to see and smell roses in full bloom before purchasing. We offer specialist advice on rose cultivation and companion planting to ensure successful garden integration.

This unique range includes traditional drums, ceremonial masks, and decorative sculptures that add cultural interest to homes and gardens. Many pieces are exclusive designs created specifically for our centre.
