Rooted in Passion

We specialise in growing quintessentially English cottage garden plants with a focus on sustainability.

Dan is the youngest plant nursery owner in the UK, at 23 years old, and has been growing plants with his Grandma, Lily, since he was a toddler, and commercially since 2017, when he was just 14.
