Title: Newspaper article featuring "best nurseries"
Post by: Maggi Young on July 09, 2015, 01:40:38 PM

The newspaper article  at this link -
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening/3350268/Gardening-the-best-nurseries-around.html (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening/3350268/Gardening-the-best-nurseries-around.html) - gives a good list of reliable nurseries. Not exhaustive, of course and not too many with rock garden or alpine plants - but I know that Forumists are gardeners with broad interests!

Not all info given is 100% - for instance, Hardy's Cottage Garden Plants have won 30 Chelase Gold  medals, not 13.

 Nice to see the likes ogf the Himalayan Garden Co. in North Yorkshire  included.
