FLOWERING CRAB APPLE



Malus Rudolph

A good disease resistant variety

For just £35 you could be enjoying a pretty Malus (Crab Apple) tree in your garden - and then be making jelly with the fruits later in the year. We have a large selection of fruit and ornamental trees to choose from, as well as quality shrubs, perennials and bedding plants, plus so much more.

 

Rhododendrons and Azaleas

'Honey Butter' Rhodo

Now is the perfect time to plant your azaleas and rhododendrons and we have a good selection to choose from, starting from just £9.95.  The Key to any successful planting lies in choosing the right location followed by correct planting. With the best start, rhododendrons will grow trouble free with very little, if any maintenance required.

2012!!!

Hello 2012,

So the New Year is here and Lime Cross Nursery and Café will have been open with the new building for a year in April.  It’s been a tough, but rewarding year and thanks to all our new and existing staff things have run as smoothly as can be expected.  Our customers have also been brilliant; so supportive and caring about how we move the business forward.

So what can be expected from Lime Cross for 2012?

For the first year ever we now are stocking Dahlias, Onion Sets, Gladioli and Seed Potatoes all now in. 

Bulbs and tubers have been a learning curve for all of us at Lime Cross, i.e. selecting what our customers want, but we hope that our interesting selections floats boats……

For the rest of the year?

Lots more plants!

Events

After the success of our Christmas Fair and the ‘Sculpture in the Garden’ event we are hoping to do more spring events, and Sue in the kitchen will be doing cooking courses.  There has been talk of a summer event all top secret…….

Looking forward to seeing you all in the New Year

Vicky

Lime Cross Cafe Produce

Dear All,

Just to let you know that our Christmas Fair and Tasting this weekend was a great success and the Lime Cross Cafe produce went down a storm.

Sue in the Cafe will have our mini mince pies available again this weekend and is taking orders, but get in quick as orders are flooding in quick and fast!  Also Sue is still taking orders for her Cranberry, Sour Cherry and Fruit Christmas Cake, however only until the end of this week as it needs time to mature.

Well if we don't see you all before Christmas have a very happy one and we wish you a very happy New Year.

Best Wishes for Christmas

From All at Lime Cross Nursery and Cafe
