Wyevale for sale

Just read in The Garden that Wyevale up for sale.

The article suggested that some of the sites may go for building.

What's worrying is that they had only just acquired Woodcote Green in Wallington, which is an excellent garden centre that raises a lot of its own plants.

Merged 2 threads - in case you're confused!!

Some GC's have been bought including my local one.

Wyevale near me at Chipperfield and seems to be quite a good place in my limited experience

If Blue Diamond do the same to the Wyvale GC's like they done to our local GC it will no longer be a GC but and gift shop with restaurant that sells a few plants

^^^You mean they won't sell 50p seeds

That's the only time I go to Wyevale!

I remember the Wyevales in Central Milton Keynes where I grew up, it had everything, but before Wyevales it was a Cramphorns (although I think the two companies merged?). Now it's just waste ground growing nothing more than weeds

One local(ish) to us is more a retail centre vaugley related to plants these days. A branch of Edinburgh Wool and a couple of other clothes shops are on site before you get into the main hall (a converted greenhouse structure) which is a cafe, retail theropy unit that has plants racked up outside with the few fence panels, stones and common fruit trees.
It's getting harder to find and support traditional gerden centres now, most of them buy in all thier plants. We have one local independent garden centre that still raise thier own bedding plants but even they added a cafe last year.

^^^^^ I think its the cafe that keeps a lot of the garden centres open, and most of the garden centres in my local area buy in their plants from the Clyde valley nurseries as the cost of heating for growing young plants is high, and was talking to the owner of one of them the other day and she said that she wouldn't be going to the Ayr Flower Show, she had set up there on previous years, but most plant sales were made in the stalls supplied by Dutch plant growers, where they were cheaper to produce and all in flower and once most of them were home, be dead in about three weeks
