Our Clay Planting Pack takes the guesswork out of a heavy-soil border — a ready-matched selection of plants that genuinely thrive on clay, covering roughly 8m².
Free click & collect from the nursery, or delivery on larger orders.
Clay puts a lot of gardeners off: it bakes hard in summer, sits wet in winter, and many plants simply sulk in it. The answer is not to fight the soil but to plant things that actually enjoy it.
We have done that selection for you. This pack contains a balanced mix of shrubs and perennials chosen to cope with heavy ground and to give structure, flower and interest across the seasons — enough to plant a border of approximately 8m².
Everything is grown here on the nursery, so the plants leave us in good condition and properly hardened off. Clay is often more fertile than gardeners expect; get the planting right and these borders can be the best in the garden.
Happy to tailor the mix to your aspect or colour preference — just give us a call before ordering.
Every plant we sell is backed by four decades of growing. Tell us about your garden and we’ll tell you honestly whether this is the right plant for it.
