WOODLAND
Any plant that either makes a woodland or lives inside it


PRICE STRUCTURE

There are 4 levels, the higher the level the more cost and time involved to breed the plant, many plants may also be available in other sizes than shown

For full details please go to Nuts & Bolts button

MAIL ORDER

All mail order prices include the post and packing  (£1.50 per litre volume) so the price you see is the price you pay, for full details please go to the Nuts & Bolts button. Large orders may be sent in multiple packages. Mainland Great Britain only at the moment I'm afraid, anywhere else by request. Not all plants are available for mail order (they may be the wrong size or out of stock or too low in numbers) but can still be on sale at the nursery. No minimum order.

EXPLANATIONS

USDA zones are zones of average minimum winter temperatures, for us zone 7 or less is hardy virtually everywhere in the UK, zone 8 is also hardy but some plants may need some winter protection in exposed or very cold areas, zone 9 will need protection unless in a very sheltered spot such as by the coast or in a town centre, and zone 10 are just plain wimpy
