What better way to brighten up a room or a shaded spot on the patio than
by adding a colourful streptocarpus or a lush growing begonia. The popularity
of houseplants continues to grow as everyone realises the benefits of having
a few plants to care for and to clean the air, absorb pollutants, let alone the
benefit to mental wellbeing.
Why bother with cut flowers? A potted flowering houseplant direct from our
nursery is a fantastic substitute, excellent value and will last in bloom for
months. (pages 53-55)
As always we have some new Streptocarpus and Begonias that we have bred. We have added a few
easy to grow Plectranthus this year, which are a relation to coleus, keep either as houseplants or
outdoors in the summer.
We are part of a decreasing number of ornamental plant nurseries in the UK who propagate all their
own stock, so when we say British Grown you know that all our plants have been propagated and
raised by us in our nursery in North Wales. Many of the plants have also been bred here and are unique
to us.
