NEW NURSERY IN SCOTLAND
« on: July 22, 2014, 01:06:49 PM »
Dear Forum members

I would like to introduce myself and my new online nursery based in Ayrshire, Scotland.

We have recently moved to this 11 acre farm (including a 5.5 acre wood full of wildflowers and wildlife) and are currently working hard on getting the nursery up and running. We are currently offering our own freshly collected seeds and dormant plants will be available from the autumn time.

I hope to be regularly contributing to this forum and letting you know how the nursery is progressing.

Kind regards
Lisa

Nice to hear about a new nursery opening!
Best wishes for success and supplying gardeners with more plants - you'll find many Forumists eager to search out your website. And nice to see that you will send seeds overseas ;D
cheers

Welcome Lisa!  Good luck with this venture - I've just ordered some seed by way of some retail therapy  :D

I have purchased from Lisa several times from her e-bay listings and have been very satisfied with my purchases and excellent service.

Thank you all for your warm welcome to the forum, it means so much as it has been quite a struggle to get this far.

All my best wishes and back to digging!

Hope they all grow well for you Maggi and other members who have ordered!  I've been collecting seed again today (too hot to do much else) so hope to include more species on the website again in the next week or so.

Have a good weekend!

 Helen, there's another new bulb seed source too : see here

Have just received a well-packed envelope of ephemeral seeds from Growild Nursery - heloniopsis orientalis and ypslindra thibetica. Prompt delivery, super service. They have some nice things on their website. Must go and sow these straight away!
