Perennials

I am proud at EG to grow from scratch, this is time consuming and laborious. But, it fits with my ethos of providing you the client, with home grown plants suitable for our native UK environment.

I grow from seed and cuttings. I do not “buy-in” plugs. It may take me a whole year for a plant to be saleable as I nurture and “grow on” into a bigger pot, making sure the root system is excellent. I grow in the best compost available – and this is peat free.

Watering the nursery, just once, can take 4 hours a day in the summer months.

I need to buy nematodes to keep on top of whitefly, greenfly, and red spider mite. I need all plants to be spot checked for Vine Weevil grubs, slugs and snails, this is time consuming and laborious. I need to buy labels, pots and feed. I use organic seaweed and blood, fish and bone – both sustainable and natural. If I am unable to take my own seed from the gardens I have to source and pay for seed and sometimes I need to source from abroad. I need to buy propagators and trays. Currently, I am producing and growing my plants at a loss for the amount of time and effort spent.
