As the cash-and-carry division of Tamar Nurseries (who were awarded a Royal Warrant in April 2017), we have access to over 500 varieties of plants selected for their horticultural merits, hardiness and suitability for modern landscaping – all grown on a massive 26-acre site and available in a huge range of sizes from 2 litre to 110 litre pots. Depending on your schedule, bare root plants (available from November to

March) are a much more cost-effective alternative to pot-grown plants and are perfect for hedging, especially in larger areas – they’re ideal for attracting wildlife too. And if the construction work is complete and you need immediate impact, we can supply larger specimen plants and ‘instant hedging’ by the metre. Whatever your garden design, Rachael’s Plant Outlet offers an unrivalled selection of trees – pleached, feathered, multistem, umbrella, pyramid, roof-trained and cubic; all of which can be supplied either bare root, rootballed or containerised from 6-8cm to 20-25cm in girth.
