Now that we have both reached ‘that age’, the nursery will be closing on 31st December 23, after 25 years of growing and supplying plants to many lovely customers!

We look forward to taking it easier and caring for our large garden at leisure.

Thanks to all who have supported us since 1998, our very best wishes, Hilary & Graeme

UPDATE – from October 2022, our plants will be available as usual via Mail Order throughout the UK, or may be pre-ordered from our online catalogue and collected from the nursery. Our current sales area will be reorganised to accommodate more Auricula growing space, meaning customers will, unfortunately, no longer be able to visit to browse stock.

We are still happy to advise, via email or telephone, on the selection of our plants for purchase, whether for individual customers, or for landscape design projects. You’ll also still see us at some of the outdoor plant fairs throughout the season!

Our sales area can still be visited during September, just give us a call, or email us, if you’d like to do so.

We’re pleased to be able to welcome customers back to the nursery, it’s lovely to see some old friends, again.

As before, please phone 01577 840160 or email for an appointment.

We’ve been experiencing a high volume of mail orders lately, many of which are in the £10 carriage charge band. These parcels have to be taken to our rural Post Office, and we find ourselves having to visit several times per week to keep up with the backlog, something we shouldn’t be doing so often, during lockdown.

We regret, therefore, that for the time being, we will only be able to fulfil orders that can be collected from the nursery by courier. Minimum charge by courier is £15.00.

This covers from 12-30 x 9cm plants (boxes need to be this size min.) and is a Next Day service, which is important as temperature rises.

Please contact us for a competitive carriage price for larger orders. Once again, we regret having to take this action, and we thank you for your valued support and understanding. Happy Easter, stay well, everyone.

It’s a difficult time for everyone just now, plant-lovers, and small businesses included. Our shows and meetups are cancelled and we can’t get to pursue the interest we all love as a community together, but we can still, thankfully, take solace in our own gardens and enjoy them safely ourselves.

Because we can’t meet at shows and talks, we can happily arrange to post plants to you, or, we can leave your order to be collected at the Nursery gate.

We’ve also added a searchable catalogue on the website to make it easier to find the plants you’re looking for.

Just email hello@rumblingbridgenursery.co.uk or call us on 01577 840160 and we can discuss your requirements.

Stay safe everyone and happy gardening!
