The Nursery, A Working Collection

Indoor & Outdoor Plants · The Working Nursery Behind The Heritage Collection

A working nursery of indoor and outdoor plants, and the place the Heritage Collection lavender is propagated and kept. The conservation role sits behind the trolley: keeping rare varieties in cultivation, aligned with the National Collection concept.

A trolley of plants is a register too — every pot a specimen, entered and ready to take home.

The nursery is where the Heritage Collection is propagated and the lesser-known cultivars are kept growing. It is the conservation work made practical: rare varieties multiplied, catalogued and offered on — the National Collection concept at the scale of a trolley.
