Lawrence, the owner of Wallington Nursery, has grown plants on Woodmansterne Lane for over 50 years, supplying members of the public and other retail outlets with plants, cut flowers & horticultural accessories. You’ll still see Lawrence around the site today he is very active in the business.
From seedling to sale
It all starts with thousands of tiny seedlings planted and nurtured in the huge greenhouses you can see as you drive along Woodmansterne Lane in Wallington. They are painstakingly cared for as they turn into the pot bedding plants that you see filling our benches, here at Wallington Nursery.

Chrysanthemums - cut flowers
Chrysanthemums are one of our favourite and most successful plants here at Wallington Nursery. They are planted in the ground inside our huge greenhouses during the spring and are ready to sell as cut flowers in the Autumn and Winter. We also grow Xanths in the open fields during the warmer months.
