Note: Plants have latin names because they are subject to botanic classification -  the names can sometimes be a bit intimidating, and impossible to interpret unless you happen to know them; except of course for the familiar ones such as Rosa and Rhododendron! We are adding a little more information (and image links) to the plants descriptions which we hope will be of interest.)

Please note - as at Spring '08 - plants stocks are more variable at this stage in the season - it is prudent to check we have stock by telephoning us on 0161 790 8792 or  Email WHGC

You can also now contact us via MSN Messenger  - see foot of page.
