Lovely place, smiling staff, selling all the essentials, and all reasonably priced. Wish I found it…read moresooner.

This feels like the kind of business that too often has been squeezed out in London. Unique,…read moreindependent, established and actually embedded in the community. Plants are always of excellent quality (which sometime you pay for), and are arranged in an way that is intuitive to navigate by type or planting aspect as appropriate. The staff are knowledgeable, accommodating and have always been a pleasure to interact with in my experience, that of my family and our small dog who has received the most enthusiastic welcome. I cannot recommend a visit highly enough

What a find! I am so pleased this secret garden centre has opened up near me. It's an absolute…read moretreasure with loads of interesting plants and lots of great staples and odd gadgets. They seem to favour plants grown locally (Surrey mostly) and have some really unusual herbs such as tangerine sage and black mint. They also serve tea, coffee and locally made cakes, which are all scrummy! On a lovely day, it is heavenly to sit outside in amongst all the greenery enjoying a cuppa and a slice of home made cake. They also offer free local delivery (same day) which was brilliant for us as we bought loads of compost and had walked from home, so didn't fancy walking back with it!

Lovely little place tucked away from Penge high street. Perfect for a spot of lunch or just tea and…read morecake. Theres a shop inside that sells all sorts of interesting wears, and a upstairs seating area if its not too nice out. Beautifully decorated with plants growing everywhere, really nice to sit outside on a sunny day and consider buying a tree!

What a gem! I recently bought some really good quality turf…read morefrom Eden Park Garden Centre. I made the mistake to first look at the local branch of a national DIY chain and was shocked by their turf on offer (moldy, rotten, etc). Thank god I decided to go to Eden Park Garden Centre where they had fresh turf for sale at pretty much the same price. I was so pleased with my purchase, that I went back the next day to get a few small shrubs and flowers for my garden as well. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful - they even offered to carry my purchase to my car. I'm definitely a loyal customer now.

Though the summer-long hosepipe ban which is already in force for the southeast of England may put a slight dampener (no pun intended!) on things Woodcote Green Nurseries are located a road along with a few other horticultural centres. However, they are the biggest and have a few more strings to their bow apart from the garden centre At this of year, I like to add some seasonal vegetables just for the year and perhaps plant a new fruit bush or tree which will yield a bountiful harvest over many years. Sometimes, some herb plants may need replacing after a harsh winter though it wasn't too bad a winter this time I also love to browse their aquarium area though I've discovered through experience that my doctoring skills sadly don't extend to my finned friends, so I now confine myself to looking at the fishes! They have a nice cafe with hot and cold food as well as cakes and drinks for a snack, hence catering for different types of meals. Edinburgh Woollen Mills have an area with clothing and there's a small book department too Like the start of a new football season, spring brings with it a season of hope and limitless opportunities in the garden!
