First Gardening Talk for 2019

Posted on by

We had our first talk of the year over the weekend in a pretty village with a super lovely group.

Our plants are looking pretty as well, with a great colour on them for March!

We are available for talks only in March now, so please contact us to book in for next year! If you want to know more about our plants or buy anything, you can book in for a nursery visit. Email us to check availability info@plantagogo.com. 

If you are interested in hosting a talk with us, you can enquire when we may be free to work with you. They last for approx. 45 minutes to 1 hour (nearly always 1 hour unless requested otherwise) depending on what you require.

Talks given usually include photos and other props, and a short powerpoint presentation. We bring all our own equipment but if you do have a screen that saves us carrying ours please do let us know! (they are quite bulky).

Plants that are currently ready for their new homes

Posted on by

With the nature of our business, we often have plants come quickly into stock and go back out again, or we may only have a select few for sale. We try our best to let you know what is available.

At the moment, we have lots of Heuchera ‘Sweet Caroline’ with beautiful large salmon-pink flowers over lemon and lime foliage in Spring and Summer foliage changing to lime green later in summer then to lime with silver cast in Autumn and Winter.

Heuchera ‘Violet Shimmer’ TM ( Fox Series) was lunched last year at Chelsea flowers show, and we have quite a few in the nursery ready for your garden! In the Spring, it has deep violet foliage with a shimmer, which as the leaf grows becomes more silvered keeping a violet shimmer through early Summer, by mid Summer/Autumn it is very silvery foliage, dark veins, slightly ruffled, with a purple underside. We named this one after Richards Mum!

We have ONE Heuchera ‘Midnight Rose’ left, so if you’ve had your eye on this one, now is the time to grab it! It has really unusual and pretty pink polka dots cover on the shiny plum foliage in Spring with a neat habit.

If you ever see a plant that is out of stock that you are really interested in, just send us an email and we can let you know if it may be coming back soon. We can also grow to order!

I want to plant up a few pots with heuchera this year and have just found your web site. I notice that a lot of the plants are out of stock and despite this I wonder if you still have a good selection which are ‘in stock’ that I could come and look or are you not actually open until later on?

Hi Margaret
Yes we have plenty of variety
I know the shop always has a few issues at looking full as they come and go so quickly and we cover a lot if varieties.
If you want to come to the nursery you just need to sort out a day time that suits us both (morning are always best for us)
We would be happy to open the nursery for you.
Please just send your prefer day and time and we can go from there
Hope to see you soon
Kind regards
Vicky

This question was asked by
– Peta T

In my baskets this year I want to use Ipomea Sweet Caroline and Begonia Firewings Orange and thought trailing heucherellas would be good too. I can only see one that trails as long as 60cm, can you suggest any others and which ones would you suggest. Was thinking of maybe adding a blue flower in there too somewhere.
Your help before on Heucheras are growing well in the garden.
Many thanks.

Heucherella
Redstone falls
