Exbury Nursery
We've just heard that Exbury Nursery has gone bust, which seems
extraordinary. Has anyone else heard this? -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ |

Clifford Bawtry, Doncaster, South Yorkshire So we heard/read but that's a bit of a shock all round, I should think. They're still online, BTW. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ |

... We've just heard that Exbury Nursery has gone bust, which seems extraordinary. Has anyone else heard this? Didn't have confirmation 'til I saw HW this morning. Didn't see it yesterday - we were out: it was too wet here for gardening outdoors so I went up Snowdon with my wife ;~)) What a sad sorry story of personality clashes and a huge hit for Phyophthora ramorum. -- Rod My real address is rodthegardeneratmyisp |

What a sad sorry story of personality clashes and a huge hit for Phyophthora ramorum. I'm afraid so. The personality clash happened a little while ago, apparently but it really is so sad to hear of yet another nursery going down the drain. As an aside, a now dead gardener Ray knew and who was in charge of Agatha Christie's garden, had a strong belief that Phyophthora ramorum has been around for years but in an 'unrampant' and fairly mild sort of way. I haven't followed any detail on this but imagine that it's possible that climate change and importations have helped to spread it and faster? And how very nice to hear from you again, Rod! I'm on the trail of a Camellia chrysantha atm and x fingers. If I can get one or two, would you be interested? I know the chances of success are minimal but I'd really like to try! -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ |
