Trade plant nursery open to the public for sales and advice. Normally trade only, Babylon Plants has a monthly open day
Babylon Plants is a wholesale nursery set in the Oxfordshire countryside supplying garden designers and landscapers with hardy garden plantsDuring the week, our team grow and pick orders for designers and landscapers across the Southeast of England as well as numerous National Trust propertiesHowever, on the 1st Saturday of every month, we exclusively open to the public so that they too can access the incredible range of plants and enjoy the immersive and inspiring nursery set in the Oxfordshire countryside
We grow and stock a huge range of Trees, Topiary, Shrubs, Perennials, Grasses, Climbers and Ferns which are not generally available to the public in normal garden centresOur range of plants has been carefully chosen to suit current design trends as well being selected to thrive in the local climate and be easy to grow
November is a perfect time of year to plant trees, hedges and topiary as the soil is wet and ground still warmOur range is at its widest at this time of year after a summer of growing new stockMany trees and shrubs are ablaze with autumn colours so it's also a wonderful time to seek inspiration for your gardenOur topiary range of balls and cones has just been restocked, so there is a huge choice of box alternatives such as Yew, Ilex, Osmanthus and Portuguese Laurel to choose from if you're looking for lower maintenance alternatives to boxOur tree range is the largest in the area with a large selection of multistemmed, pleached and standard trees, some over 5 metres tall and all beautiful
If grasses are your thing, it's also a great time to browse and design a new scheme as our grasses are assuming their autumn colours and displaying their amazing flower and seed headsThese beautiful, low maintenance plants look great on their own, en masse or mixed through with smaller shrubs and late flowering perennials such as Asters, Salvias and VerbenasOur huge range of hardy perennials means there is always something in flower allowing people to find plants that will enhance their gardens, no matter what the time of year or how tricky the conditions might be
Babylon Plants doesn't just stock a huge range of beautiful and inspiring plantsWe also run the whole nursery ecologically, using peat free compost, biological controls and recycled and sterilised potsWe've planted a 5 acre meadow/woodland that surrounds the nursery and teems with wildlifePlease feel free to ask directions to the meadow and stroll along paths that weave through a huge range of trees planted over the last 30 yearsThis is also a great chance to get ideas on what trees might work in your space as many trees can be seen developing their mature habit and features
Our friendly and expert sales team can help you find and select plants suited to your garden, discuss screening or tree options that might work in your garden or even advise on design and planting advice
Our full range of plants can be viewed by looking on our website and downloading the retail price spreadsheetsThe prices displayed do not include VAT and there is a 20% discount applied to the prices of Perennials, Grasses, Ferns and Lavender when 3 or more are bought of any variety
