About

Encouraged by his Grandmother, my nephew Sean Dunn, the Managing Partner at the Boma, grew up gardening from a very young age in our hometown of Port Elizabeth South Africa. His gardening passion stayed with him through school and his hobby turned in to a weekend and holiday job at the local garden centre.

Simply the best staff and selection. I could quite happily move in because it is almost impossible to choose from their brilliant selection of plants. The staff are knowledgeable, helpful, relaxed and clearly love their jobs. The ceramics are also of a high quality and just as good a selection as the plants which I guess means I'll be back many times in the future. It is also convenient to park up or equally not far from Kentish Town so it is easy to get your selection home safely. Thank you !

This place is just lovely.
I’ve should have come here so much earlier and haven’t been able to stop going. I know this is going to be an expensive hobby, but my home is now beginning to become a small jungle.
Staff are knowledgeable and patient with newbies like me who have brown fingers and many questions, but going on 3 weeks and all my plants are thriving.. what do you know, don’t water them too much (I did start with hard-to-kill plants though: started with ZZs, some succulents and Pathos. Upgraded to Kentia, Peace Lily and Prayer Plants and seeing how it goes (with lots of YouTube

What a peaceful place. So many indoor and outdoor plants to choose from, with helpful staff who are happy to guide with plant care and conditions. Went four times in a single week when I moved into my house and found it an excellent place to get my plants, in how lovely the plants are, how helpful the staff are, and how relaxing it was to just walk around.

This is plant heaven! A huge selection of indoor and outdoor plants, for every budget. Lots of gardening accessories and products like pots, soil, sand and grit. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. The only struggle was choosing what NOT to buy because I truly wanted everything! Looking forward to my next visit.

My favourite garden centre in London! The atmosphere is wonderful, there are often four legged friends around, the staff have almost always been warm and welcoming and the amount they have is great!
Prices are fair and in my experience the same as far larger stores so it’s great to support this place.
I’m not super local but always happy to go out of my way to come here when in need, even just to have a little wonder around to find inspiration.
Unfortunately the pond in the back has gone and I wonder what happened to the fish.
Otherwise great!
