 | About Us
We are a family run business established in 1989. Originally an alpine nursery , we now grow and stock a wide range of hardy plants with an extensive collection of alpines, ferns, perennials and camellias. The latter numbers 300+ varieties and is known as The Coghurst Camellia Collection.
The nursery is open all year round to the public and we stock a full range of hardy nursery stock and bedding throughout the year. We have helpful and friendly staff there to answer any questions and offer help and advice. |

 |
 | Shows
We attend many garden events throughout the year.
These range from one day plant fairs, weekend garden festivals and, of course, major RHS Shows.
Unable to visit the nursery? We are always pleased to bring orders for collection to any of the shows we attend. |

We also run a series of container gardening workshops throughout the year.
Please contact us for details or click for link.
These troughs are also ideal for growing 'drought tolerant plants' such as
Sempervivums and Echeverias. See section on alpines |
