Garden centres and growers hit by Covid-19 crisis

[Thinkingabout1t]

I’ve heard that commercial growers who usually supply garden centres are now (because of lockdown) delivering orders to people’s homes. Does anyone know any who are doing this? I haven’t found them online. I mean ones that don’t usually supply to individuals. I’d like to do my bit for a small business that’s been hit by the crisis. Thanks.

I'd like to know the answer to this too.

Anyone?

I have one close to me, but they are only delivering to a very local area. Keep trawling your local wholesalers. Ours only started last week, and they have been inundated. I received a load of Geraniums today, and they were lovely, and cheaper than from a garden center. I actually got notified of this on "Nextdoor.co.uk".

Van Hage up the road from me are starting to deliver any stock plants from tomorrow

spalding growers

cant remember all our suppliers but our deliveries stopped last week ,had barely begun!!

i know they are all cut/planted/trollied ready to go....bought and paid for i expect but we are closed with only a few available on c+c

I've asked on Nextdoor, which is pretty useful for local things. Had several suggestions, but not yet found anyone locally who could deliver. So anyone delivering nationally would also be good.

All those plants withering away and money lost to the growers -- such a shame.

I would love some cheerful bicolour senettis!!!

Where can I get those? Am I too late?
