We are happy to make you happy

Nice to see you all! Welcome to our website and welcome to our garden centre which, to be honest, we call garden centre a bit reluctantly. A plant shop would be much more accurate. It appears that the English language lacks a word that describes a place where only, or most commonly, plants and flowers are sold rather than anything else, yet it is not a nursery that grows them in open fields. We do not stock gnomes and other plastic stuff, we do not stock tools or hoses, or even pots. Simply because we specialize in PLANTS. They are predominantly destined for Central European climate which covers USDA zones 5 to 7, and we ship them all over continental Europe and the British Isles. More about the shipping options here. We do not sell seeds, cuttings, bulbs, or annuals.

We specialize in evergreen broadleaved plants and magnolias. No wonder that our flagship is a species that belongs to both these groups and truly was the initial reason that gave birth to our small business: bull bay magnolia (see its flower on the left). Over more than a decade this queen of flowering trees has proven its hardiness and selected varieties thrive in zone 6. We sell thousands of plants every year, and this magnolia is a key feature in almost every garden we landscape.

Ecology. It is not a fashion for us, it is our ‘default setup’. Not only do we treat our plants with ecological solutions, we also grow organic fruit and vegetables. And in 2013 we established our beloved BIO SHOP where we our own produce as well as selected items from eco-farming all around Europe, and some delicious (sub)tropicals such as bananas or pineapples. Would you like to try some? Call by, we guarantee an experience of excellent taste and perfect health.

Back to plants. Check our Catalogue for the complete offer of plants available now or in the coming season if you browse in winter. If you are hungry for novelties, keep on visiting our News section where every new entry will be shown. Our attractive Discount Programme for returning customers offers great deals, including Winter Discounts which can help you save up to 20% on all plants irrespective of size and price. Gift Tokens in multiple values are also available either as a present or for your future spending if you buy them when they are discounted.

We are very happy to see how popular our Hobby Collection has become over the last years. Thank you for that. Hobby Collection comprises of plants in the smallest sizes we can offer but not compromising the quality. We keep on feeding it so you can afford some of our rarities without having to pay a lot. Quite the contrary, there is our DeLuxe section designed for demanding customers. The highest quality of only the best looking plants that, having received some extra care, look superb even in the container. And from the practical point of view, all our plants are available in pots of maximum 120 liters so that a maximum of 2 people can handle them in your garden without any machinery. It saves you money and worry.

Landscaping. It is as inspiring as ever. We like creating new gardens as well as reconstructing old ones. I recon the ratio is almost 50:50. To see some of our projects please visit the Landscaping page. Not all are shown, obviously, but a good selection of various types of jobs we did. We like creating a garden that works perfectly for you. One that brings you pleasure and relax. Garden is a natural part of our nature.
