A couple of weeks ago Billy and Norma took down some old rotten tables and created a new ground level growing area.
The new space means we can fit more in, see stock easily, and water more easily too! The fence will help to keep deer out.
Swipe for the before and work in progress and visit @stottsnursery for herbaceous perennials, shrubs, trees and hardy annuals.

The fern, Matteuccia struthiopteris.
And scroll for a tour of the nursery in the stunning Spring sunshine today. We might be biased but we truly believe @stottsnursery is a special place to be.
Matteuccia struthiopteris is a deciduous fern known for its tall fronds that resemble ostrich feathers or shuttlecocks. It thrives in moist, shady, woodland and waterside conditions.

We`re putting together the last tree order from our UK grower before autumn. If you`re looking for a tree then we could add it to the order for you! Email billystott@stottsnursery.co.uk 😊🌱
A wonderful day to be in the woods and at the nursery. Warm sun and bird song truly are a treat!
Today we unloaded some lovely new stock from one of our growers in Leicestershire.
Visit us at @stottsnursery for herbaceous perennials, shrubs, trees and hardy annuals.

At the nursery with Billy and Cornus – the coloured stemmed Dogwoods.
Generally growing to around two to three meters tall, their best colour comes if you cut them back hard every year or couple of years. It’s the newest growth that has the best, most vibrant colour.
For more herbaceous perennials, shrubs, trees and hardy annuals visit @stottsnursery

Ribes laurifolium
One of the earliest evergreen shrubs to flower – tassels of white green flowers grow against dark green leathery leaves with red stalks and stems.
It should be grown in full sun, in well drained soil with some shelter.

Now is a great time to start putting plant supports in the garden as spring growth begins.
And what a thrill it would be to use something that you’ve made yourself! This weekend Billy can show you how!
Join us for a willow obelisk or cloche workshop at @backwoods_experiences this Saturday 7th March. All materials, biscuits and tea included!

I`ve been using some sunshine to get out with a clipboard and draw diagrams of what was planted where in the borders in the autumn. This is a new little shade border, which showcases plants for you and also provides propagation material. Billy😊🌱
A the nursery with Billy and Lonicera fragrantissima ‘Winter Honeysuckle.’
Grown and known for its beautiful white flowers that pump out perfume from the end of December until March. It’s really lovely to bring inside to scent a room.

Snowdrops are a delightful harbinger of Spring and we’ve been enjoying them a lot lately – they’ve been a brightness in the gloom!
Here Billy talks about the Common Double Snowdrop on one of the few sunny, blue sky days we’ve been blessed with lately.
