Default Viburnum tinus Spring Bouquet

Does anyone know where I can buy small plants of the above for a hedge please? I have tried google without success. I live in Somerset and have tried the local nurseries but no-one is stocking them.

Hi,
The only nursery I know specialising in hedging plants is Buckingham.
They do mail order (on-line) and I can vouch for them in this regard
together with the quality of their plants and their transport. They have
tinus but not the cultivar you specify.

You might like to look at their site though - it may give you some
alternative ideas if you are not completely loyal, for some reason, to
Spring Bouquet. What's special about it and where did you come across it?

Regards

Hussein

From the RHS plantfinder, one of the nurseries listed as selling this variety and providing mailorder is Beechcroft. You can find their website: http://www.beechcroft.com/

Their shrubs are not listed on their website, but they should be able to help.

Default Request for Viburnum tinus

Thank you all for your suggestions. I have the Buckingham catalogue and therefore was aware they did not stock the variety I was looking for. Will definitely try Beechcroft and look on the MSN site.

Thanks again,

glo
