Succulents

Succulents are great for hot sunny conservatories or windowsills. They are excellent for introducing children to growing plants.

For more information on growing these see growing succulents.

Due to our recent move, our range of interesting conservatory and plants and succulents has been somewhat reduced - once we get established at our new location we will be reintroducing many of our old favourites, plus some new varieties.

Our Succulents are supplied in 9cm pots.
