Histon Plants
We can provide free advice on caring for your plants after purchase. We also offer an additional planting service for the complete novice after a site survey which is highly recommended. As a general guide, bulbs should be planted 2-3 times the depth of the bulb (unless otherwise specified on the pack).

Make sure they are planted the correct way up. Quite often the top of the bulb is pointed, or you can see old roots or a basal plate visible at the base of the bulb to indicate the bottom. Bulbs come in all shapes and sizes and it is not always possible to tell which is top and bottom. Here at Histon Plants, we will be offering a comprehensive range of potted spring bulbs for sale in spring 2022.

Just wanted to thank you for the beautiful bedding plants you delivered in April. I kept them safe during the spring and planted them out in early June They have bloomed beautifully. Such great plants and brilliant service.

This is a local gem, in fact I consider it my favourite garden centre in Cambridgeshire. A lovely range of plants, changing seasonally and properly looked after at affordable prices. Couldn't be much better.
