Notcutts Spans the Centuries

As their slogan reads – ‘Notcutts have been helping gardeners since 1897’.  They were nurserymen for over fifty years before they opened one of the first garden centres in the 1950s and today they continue to advise gardeners and source quality British-grown plants. One way and another, there is a pretty impressive level of expertise within the company, which is now run by the 4^th generation of the family. I’ve used the Notcutts Book of Plants (now in its 17^th edition) as an invaluable source of reference all of my gardening life  and visited several of their garden centres over the years, always leaving with a fine plant or two. So, as a company that is good at reinventing itself, it’s good to see that they have come bang up to date and you can now shop online from their extensive collection of garden tools and plants, as well as delving into their Garden Library where they share their knowledge and expertise.

The Website

In the instance that you can’t find what you’re looking for visitors can consult the online help center. Or of course you could use their online facility for finding your nearest Notcutts should you wish to talk to the experts face to face.
