Plant Fairs

It’s always a joy getting out and about, catching up with old friends and sharing our plants and knowledge with people who can’t always make it to the garden and nursery.

The Great Dixter Plant Fair, which we have attended for many years, is held in the spring and autumn, conveniently bookending the growing season.  Emily, Malin and Åsa worked this year’s spring fair which ran from Saturday 1st- Sunday 2nd April.

Our friends at The Garden Museum in London invited us to attend their spring fair, offering locals the opportunity to buy plants from us and to chat to the team. Marc, Emily, Hannah and Hollie headed to the Museum in Lambeth for the fair on Sunday 16th April, taking with them our more unusual plants currently looking good on the nursery. As expected, it was a great day with lots of connections made, many plants sold and a range of horticultural questions answered by the team.
