How do we get so many plants potted at the Nursery

Stewarts Nursery grows almost 500,000 plants every year - take a look at how they get potted up - see the potting machine at work:


Chip and Pin 2nd generation

We now have the next generation of Chip and Pin devices in both of our garden centres. There may be a few teething problems but it already appears that the new system is more reliable and faster - that's good news all round.

Stewarts Wall Art - site goes live



Our Office Plants department has just launched an exciting new service. We can supply large mounted canvases to enhance work areas such as receptions, staff rooms, waiting rooms, busy corridors, and board rooms.


These canvases can be rented or purchased. The collection is almost 300 images of Floral, Animal and Landscape subjects. Many of the Landscapes are local and ideal for hotels and conference centres.

Scaredy Cat!

I really don't know if this works, judging by it's popularity it probably does!

Back to the Fuchsia

We have the first plants of the new crop of large Fuchsias. Thanks to the weather they are huge and very well budded. They are ideal to plonk into a Patio pot and enjoy through 'til the Autumn.
