Our wholesale nursery at Little Hay, operational since 1977, supplies 70-80 local garden centres with hardy plants suited to the West Midlands climate.We specialise in shrubs, perennials, and conifers, grown from cuttings and seeds to ensure superior quality. Our reputation for reliability is built on decades of experience and a passion for horticulture.
