We have started restocking the Secret Garden Centre, and a wide range of plants available now and ready for planting. Here are a handful of some particularly special plants which we have a limited availability of but are true gems in the garden. Don’t Miss Out!

magnolia foliage

Magnolia grandiflora ‘Little Gem’

This slow-growing Magnolia forms a compact, narrow shape, making it an ideal choice for the border or patio containers in urban gardens. The glossy green leaves are evergreen and have a velvet-like, cinnamon-coloured appearance to the undersides. Large scented flowers in the summer followed by interesting seed heads.

Light: Full Sun or Part Shade
Soil: Moist & Free draining
Feed: Feed in the spring with a slow-release ericaceous fertiliser.
Water: Keep well-watered whilst the plant establishes a good root system and avoid drying out in hot summers.
Height x Spread: 4m x 2.5m in 10 years

£49.99 each 60cm tall

Acacea dealbata

Acacia Dealbata

The Mimosa is a beautiful tree that holds a special place in our hearts at the Secret Garden Centre. Some of you may remember our stunning tree, which we lost in a bad winter storm a few years ago. But fear not! We intend to plant a new Acacia soon. Acacias are a great addition to a sunny garden. The grey-green foliage forms a great backdrop to the bright yellow pompom-like flowers that appear in early spring.

In stock from 24/1/26 £73.99 each 150cm tall 5ltr pot

hamamelis

Hamamelis ‘Ruben’

In the depths of winter, unassuming bare stems of Hamamelis ‘Rubin’ spout with the most curious-looking maroon flowers with sweet citrus aroma that carrys on the wind. Textured oval leaves from spring that turn a blaze of colour in the autumn before falling. Easy to grow and trouble free.

£ 50cm tall 3ltr pot
