Shopping Guide: Kiwi Nurseries
Kiwi Nurseries: An Insider's Shopping Guide
Why You Should Visit
- For Christmas Trees: You'll find a beautiful selection of Christmas trees, particularly noted for their quality and plentiful display. The trees are presented without netting, allowing you to see exactly what you're getting. They've stayed fresh longer than other trees, with minimal needle drop, even after the New Year. Staff are welcoming and helpful, even assisting with taking the tree to your car. They offer great value; in one instance, a tree only increased in price by £1.60.
- Plant Variety & Quality: The location offers a wide variety of plants, including acers and perennials, in excellent condition and at reasonable prices. Shoppers can expect healthy, well-kept plants, better than some chain garden centres.
- Hanging Basket Heaven: You'll discover a well-stocked selection of hanging baskets.
- Friendly & Knowledgeable Staff: The staff are friendly and helpful. They offer great service.
- Value for Money: You'll find a calm place with fantastic prices. Prices are good with lots of selection.
- Easy Access & Layout: The garden centre is beautiful and tidy. It has plenty of free parking. The layout is spacious and easy to navigate, with a simple and effective system for social distancing.
- Convenient Delivery (if ordering online): They offer great service with delivery as promised. The plants are in better condition than some chain garden centres.
Why You Might Consider Alternatives
- Potential for Overcharging: Be aware that there's a chance you could be overcharged at the till. It's happened before where a customer was overcharged by £10. Receipts are not itemized, so it's harder to check.
- Limited Selection of Certain Items: While the nursery is well-stocked overall, the selection of certain items might be limited. For example, there wasn't a huge selection of large outdoor potted plants for the front door.
- No Veg Seedlings: Be aware that they don't sell vegetable seedlings.
