PLANTS
The outdoor plant area had wide aisles and the
layout was fine although uninspiring. Signs were informative and
clear and made finding specific plants an easy task.
We had a good look at the plants and they were healthy, well-watered and in the correct pot sizes.
Maybe it was the time of year, but when we visited this Wyevale garden centre we didn't immediately notice any signs showing us that the plants were guaranteed. But all Wyevale hardy plants come with an impressive 5 year no quibble guarantee. This should inspire you with confidence in their plants, we are certainly impressed.
The range of plants was comprehensive and at the time of our visit there was a great range of young conifer trees for sale.
At one
end of the outdoor plant area there was a good display of hot tubs.
Although there was no dedicated information centre at this garden centre, there were plenty of staff available for asking questions.
