Sussex garden centres named among the best in the country Two garden centres in Sussex were named among the country’s best independents. The first recognised was Great Dixter House and Gardens in Rye, East Sussex. The Telegraph said here you will find “top-quality plants, propagated on site, that closely reflect the surrounding gardens at this superb nursery”.
It added: “Plants are grown in a loam-based compost blended in house so that plants get the best chance when transferred to borders. “The nursery is also a charming place to while away an afternoon with shops (selling tools, seeds and hand-crafted accessories including chestnut hurdles, also made on site) close to the garden’s café, where you can get delicious salads and sandwiches.” Simple Ways to Create a Wildlife-friendly Garden The second Sussex location to be recognised was Architectural Plants in Pulborough, West Sussex.
The Telegraph said: “This specialist nursery in West Sussex is set within 32 acres overlooking the South Downs – a big backdrop to its dramatic sculptural and exotic plant selections that span topiary, palms, bananas and many rare trees, much of which is grown on site. “You will find all the kit for sale too, including tools, tripod ladders, pots, irrigation and other accessories. “There’s also a well-established design and planting service.
” What have visitors to the garden centres said? Both garden centres have received top reviews on Google, receiving 4.6 and 4.8 stars respectively.
A visitor to Great Dixter House and Gardens, which reopens in April, said: “Wow Wow WOW! What beautiful gardens. “Today was an absolute highlight of our visit to Sussex.
