About us
Olivers Plants is run and owned by Oliver Wass who started growing and selling plants from an early age and has built up the business to be a well-known name in the local area. From a vegetable patch at home, to seperate Retail Plant Centre and Production Nursery sites, Olivers Plants has built a reputation for 'Quality Plants at Reasonable Prices'.
Our Retail Plant Centre has three covered sales areas along with a dedicated houseplants room and outdoor displays show casing a wide variety of plants. There is ample parking on site and a homely Café offering freshly ground coffee, teas, homemade cakes, sandwiches and daily specials. Click here to read more.
The Production Nursery boasts a large 16,000sq ft glasshouse and outdoor growing beds, allowing our knowledgeable team to propagate and grow a huge range of our own plants to be sold at the Retail Plant Centre.
During Summer 2017, Olivers Plants secured part funding from The European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development. This helped us to install specialised and sophisticated LED lighting into our propagation room at our Production Nursery, aiding us in growing more of our own plants from seed to sell at the Retail Plant Centre.
In early 2018, we were granted funding from The LEADER Project which has helped us to build a weather proof canopy structure at our Plant Retail Centre. This has benefitted us and our customers hugely by providing a large under cover space.
