Our visit to
Clifton Nurseries
was an unexpected and delightful surprise.

I had never heard of it, nor had I been to this part of London. It is near the Little Venice neighborhood and the tube stop is Warwick Aveneue.

It is set back behind and between so many gorgeous and beautiful London houses and, if you didn’t know about it, could almost be missed as it is set back like a private park.

What a hidden gem it is! A bit like Petersham Nurseries I would say, on a smaller scale. And from their website it seems the main business is landscape design. But the variety of plants, furniture, garden tools of all kinds, baskets, topiaries, succulents and gifts is wonderful.  The selection of pots, garden tools, water features and furniture is amazing and a bit overwhelming!

 

 

I need this furniture!!!

 

 

Loved these wire animal topiaries!

 

I have been looking for ages to buy these metal plant supports but cannot find them anywhere in the States. If you know how to find them, please let me know!

 

The gift shop had unique and unusual items:

And then, there is
The Quince Tree Cafe

We had just had lunch so really couldn’t imagine any more food….but someday soon I am returning for afternoon tea.

And here are my two favorite people who are very kind and indulge my in all my visits to anything garden related! Thank you both

Do you know about Clifton Nurseries? Have you been? Want to join me some time in September?
