Ashton Perennials is a growing nursery, propagating and growing a broad range of choice plants for the discerning gardener. We have a particular interest in Hostas & shade loving plants, Day Lillies and Grasses. Most of the plants listed on the website are perennial, many are native and the vast majority are fully hardy. All of our plants are grown in reduced peat compost. We are fortunate to have our own well on site for irrigation, and where possible use recycled paper and packaging throughout the mail order process.
Every plant featured on this site is in stock and ready for immediate dispatch. We normally acknowledge and process all orders within 48 hours of receipt so there is no long wait for your plants. All orders are despatched on Thursdays, by overnight express courier service (DHL), with the benefit of online order tracking.
New plants are added regularly during the growing season and can be seen in our monthly Special Offers update. Sign up for our Special Offers update to receive discounts, vouchers and details of new varieties. If you like the site why not Tell A Friend by using our email contact facility in the left panel. We only despatch plants to UK addresses; if you are visiting this site from a country outside the United Kingdom we apologise but we do not have the capability to handle export orders.
We have a good selection of grasses, offering architectural contrast, height and form for both the summer and winter garden. A wide choice of Hostas compliement an broad range of shade-loving plants, to give year round interest and colour in what can be a diff icult area of the garden.
Plants sent by mail order are the same size and quality as those sold at the nursery. The photograph shows a typical (1.5 litre) mail order plant with a 30cm (1ft) ruler for comparison.
We pride ourselves on the quality of plants we sell and the speed of service we offer.
