Founded over 100 years ago by George Palmer, our fifth generation family garden centre began as a small nursery, with George and Julia building greenhouses and growing plants by hand. In the 1960s, the business expanded to offer retail products as garden centres evolved.
Today, our mission is to provide exceptional plants, quality products, and an outstanding customer experience. With new locations and a broader range of offerings, we continue to honour our legacy while striving to be Leicestershire’s go-to destination for garden lovers and food enthusiasts alike.
We want our employees to be known for their friendliness, helpfulness and good customer service, with their whole ethos being ‘nothing is too much trouble for our customers’.
