Gardening Advice

If you’re looking for advice on any plant or gardening related matter, the Aylett Nurseries team of experts are on hand to help you. Just drop into the Plant Advisory and Information Centre which you’ll find right at the heart of the garden centre. The gardening advice you’ll receive will be topical and relevant to the current weather and local conditions.

You can also call our friendly team on 01727 822255 and ask for the Information Centre. If you want to talk to someone rather than reading a book, this is the place to go.

We also have a wide range of information leaflets offering gardening advice, which are available at our reception area or online.
