We are a family run plant nursery, established in 1921, operating from two sites in Hadrian’s Wall Country. The first seeds were sown at our West Heddon Nursery, which is about 1 mile North West of Heddon on the Wall. Within the surrounds of the old walled gardens of Heddon House we carry a wide range of trees, shrubs, fruit bushes, roses, garden sundries and compost. These are available alongside a wide range of herbaceous perennials, seasonal bedding and young vegetable plants which have been home grown at our Ovington site. Although a smaller site, Ovington boasts a wider range of perennials, all grown on site.

In the very early years we started specialising in Dahlias and Chrysanthemums. The fields at Heddon are a sight to see in late summer with over 15,000 plants in flower from late August until the first frosts.

Preparation for the 2027 season is underway. The fields are flowering, an awesome sight if you can fit in a visit, stock is being checked and our full colour catalogue is in production. In the meantime a preliminary list is available here.
