First day of spring tomorrow. Filling the nursery with early flowering treasures ready for our opening tomorrow.
Special plants will open on Tuesday, 1st of March. Doesn’t look like this yet. But will by midsummer. All these plants just starting to grow now.
Plant Sale starts in half an hour! Everything 1/3 off until Saturday when the nursery closes for the year. Garden entry free all week. So Be there or be square.
I have wanted to see Arundel Castle gardens for a long time so the Plant Fair Roadshow will be the perfect opportunity. I am bringing half the nursery along, far too many wonderful plants. Cant bear to leave any of the behind – at South West, England
Looking forward to seeing @specialplants at our final plant fair of the season @ArundelCastle this Sunday 19th Sept 10am-5pm with many other brilliant nurseries
Our garden open tomorrow, Wednesday, for us. And open Thursday for NGS. No need to book. September the height of floral exuberance and joy for us. Late summer colour in spades. Come and bring a friend who thought summer was over.
National Garden Scheme open day tomorrow. 10:30-5. Special Plants. Near Bath. SN 14 8LA. Bursting with late summer colour. And the plants to achieve it for sale in nursery next door. Plus oodles of cake of course.
You cant buy these luscious dames from the nursery if you fancy them

Gorgeous. Yours look better than mine
Rhapsody on a theme of Verbascums 1: 'Cotswold Queen'. Utterly butterly yellow with a burgandy insect-like eye. Grown from seed from @specialplants Derry Watkins. #garden #gardendesign #britishspring #Herefordshire
Can one ever have enough umbels? This one is the stately slow-growing, long-lived, Laserpitum siler.
Papaver orientale ‘Olympia’ peeking through Tragopogon crocifolius stems. Nothing like a screen to make you savour an overenthusiastic colour.
