“A palette of naturalistic plants… Arvensis seeks to bridge the gap between wholesale and specialist nurseries.”

Gardens Illustrated 2024

“The display beds provide a stunning backdrop… It’s really about inspiring garden designers and showing the full potential of mature plants in a garden context.”

Gardens Illustrated 2024

“This is something that we all need – a trade nursery full of ideas and innovation – this is a good nursery.”

Garden Design Journal 2019

“Arvensis Perennials is a wholesale nursery with a reputation for supplying must-have plants.”

Gardens Illustrated 2017

“Working with professionals who have a passion for horticulture is a real privilege.”

Gardens Illustrated 2017

It’s not often we get to see plants we’ve supp It’s not often we get to see plants we’ve supplied thriving so far from home..deep within the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. A real treat to have an in-depth tour of this masterpiece of naturalistic design by visionary @tracymcque . Tracy has been developing this gorgeous private property for her client for almost a decade.

As luck would have it the weather was perfect and the autumn colours and ambience completely magical.

So inspiring to hear from Tracy about her journey with this mega project, working without a masterplan for dream clients that have trusted her and allowed her to make big and bold decisions. Bravo! 

Loved, loved, loved:

the heavy use of Molinia and Sesleria grasses 

the repeated yet restricted use of colour

the scattered shrubs and pines 

the no lawns and informal rocky goat paths

the mountain streams that looked to be millenia in the making

the seamless blending of garden into alpine surrounds

Double thumbs up to Tracy and her team, as well as the landscapers who’ve built it and the gardeners that maintain it.

A reminder to all professional gardeners and garden designers in Scotland that we regularly ship your way!
When does the garden look its best…? The peren When does the garden look its best...? 

The perennial display may peak in July, but with our range of perennials and grasses, the show seems to get better and better! Although herbaceous perennials, grasses and ferns are the plants we choose to grow and sell, we love our trees too, and they are complementing our planting so well right now, with autumn fruit and leaves. 

Some of the trees looking incredible right now include:

Crataegus persimilis 'Prunifolia'
Crataegus schraderiana 
Crataegus laevigata 'Plena' 
Prunus sargentii
Koelreuteria paniculata 
Sorbus 'Olympic Flame'
Gleditsia 'Sunburst'
Malus transitoria 
Malus 'Gorgeous' 

From now, and deep into winter, the show will continue 🍂❄️

All 9cm pots, of course! 

We encourage new customers to put aside any reservations they may harbour regarding 9cm pots...

P9 is more economical for you and your client - many more plants for the same budget.

They are more eco-friendly - less compost, less plastic, less boxes,  lighter for haulage, and less transport emissions.

Less time on the nursery means less irrigation and less plant food. 

We're certain that by next summer (when it matters), you and your client won't be able to tell the difference. 

And don't forget they are are easier and quicker to plant!

Persuade your client of their virtues or bring them to the nursery to see our quality and range for themselves.
