Established in 1973 and situated at 700ft. above sea level, close to the Peak District, the nursery specialises in the production of a wide range of hardy bamboos. At present around 140 species and varieties are being propagated, many available in large sizes. Although specialising in bamboos, we also have small numbers of Ferns, Grasses & Herbaceous Plants. ~~~~<>~~~~ Collection from the Nursery. Unfortunately it is not feasible for customers to access the growing area. However in cases where a particular bamboo or batch of
plants
has been chosen via telephone or email, these can
be prepared and positioned
ready for veiwing/collection on a mutually
convenient day.
Payment in advance is not required and
there is of course no obligation to purchase when seen. Palletised deliveries and Courier services. We are not specialists in mail order sales but can usually provide a quote for delivery by courier of orders over £170 based upon your post code.. For orders over £400, excluding delivery, we can quote for palletised deliveries based upon your postcode. In this case there is effectively no weight limit but to ensure that pallets can be double stacked, carriers will only accept a total height of 2.2m ( 7ft 2 ins.) (i.e. includes:- thickness of pallet base + height of pot + height of plants). Occasionally bamboos can be packed on their side or flexible canes can be bent over but otherwise their height will need to be reduced to about 1.8/2.0m. Full details about deliveries can be sent by email. Purchasing Payment by cash or cheques only please. We regret that it is not possible for us to carry out card transactions. Payment is requied in advance for palletised deliveries or courier services, and BACS payments are the quickest and most convenient for this purpose.
Delivery and collection Whenever possible we encourage customers to collect their
plants from the nursery. We will be pleased to assist with packaging, and as
bamboos are both robust and flexible, they can be readily bundled and made quite
compact, so that quite a number of them can easily be fitted into the average
car. It may not be possible to despatch bamboos during hot or unusually cold weather or to send plants which have soft new growth. Please ask for further details if you think a palletised delivery may be of interest. Costs are dependent upon locatio and the service required so please mention your postcode. Payment for this service can be made by BACS transfer if preferred. Unfortunately sending single plants or small numbers on a pallet is not feasible as the costs would be disproportionate. All prices include VAT at the standard rate. Unfortunately it is not possible to despatch plants outside of the UK and Ireland.
