After a hearty breakfast in their lovely restaurant, a chance to enjoy a...

I'd love to go there. So much to choose from. I liked the Streptocarpus. I've got one but I'll have to get more. Glad you enjoyed your visit.

what a nice nursery to visit, beautiful grounds too :)))

A lovely place to visit, lovely colourful displays. Thanks for the streptocarpus pics...I'm a Streptoholic....lol

~lovely nursery!They had this lovely plum and ginger tart when I was there earlier in the year ~if only it wasn't so far away!Hoping to go to one of their Hellebore open days next year!

yes oh yes lovely EVEN the cakes !!!!

Excellent nursery especially the cakes...........hehehehe...

Great nursery and the weather looks good too.
You've now got me hankering after a maple and pecan plait

Lovely place we have nothing like that around here.

What a beautiful nursery and laid out so well. I love the pot that looks like a basket! I would love to visit, it really knocks spots of all the garden centres round here. Worth the journey from Kent just for one of those pastries too :)

That's MY kind of Nursery, Dd! So well-laid out! The plants look great, and it's all tidy and beautiful - and I want to go there as well!!!!!!!!!

There are soooo many Heucheras about at the moment, aren't there! Which one did you choose?

~it's not that far from Malvern ~maybe 30miles so if you stay over after the show you can go the next day~see their website

Hywel arnt they beautiful couldnt remember their name when I did the blog AmbleA I could easily become one.......
Pipsqeak not too far to travel for you, the cake selection is to die for, took me over 10 mins to make up my mind which one to buy!!
Grindle Mushy Shamrock Drc and Gee we have not seen another nursery as good as this, John the owner is very particular that it is a nursery as opposed to a G.C. they do shows, and as Arlene knows they have their own Hellebore strain, also Lewesias.
Spritz you would love it, the place is immaculate, no weeds growing on the tops of the pots, nothing sad or scruffy, and not too many miles from Malvern, a week-end perhaps? I would ask you to stay with me but I dont live in Staffordshire any more, daughter does though.......lol :=}
There is a lot more that I didnt photograph, will save that for next years visit!!

Oh yes Spritz......I bought Ginger Ale, should have taken my list with me could not remember which ones I had lol

It looks a great place and a delicious treat as well,my idea of a shopping treat........

Lincslass you have it in one.....

It sounds WONDERFUL - and yes, I have some of their Hellebores!

What a small world it is...

How lovely to see the outside looking so good at this time of year - so many nurseries and GCs seem to ignore the fact that autumn is the best time to plant lots of things.

Not at Ashwood, I really miss this nursery it was 15 mins drive, the car knew the way, as we went most weekends, most of the plants we have in the garden now are relatives of plants we bought 30 years ago!!

wow what a lovely place to go dotty, so much choice and the displaying is lovely to, not just dumped like alot, cakes look yummy to :o)

Dotty ~have you been to Ayletts just out of Basildon ~ think that is still privately owned~ not as good as Ashwood but miles better than Wyevale and has a nice cafe too!

Arlene will look it up, we havnt been, sounds nice though.
