Garden Centres in Gloucestershire

39 garden centres listed in Gloucestershire.

Gloucestershire has garden centres and nurseries spread right across the county, but the biggest groups are around Gloucester and Cheltenham. Newent and the surrounding north-west corner have a surprising cluster for their size, and there are smaller pockets around Tewkesbury and Stroud, with single entries in places such as Cirencester, Moreton-in-Marsh, Coleford and Cinderford.

That spread means most people in the county have a choice within a short drive. Webbs, Cheltenham is listed in Cheltenham, Highfield Garden World is near Gloucester, Fosseway Garden Centre is at Moreton-in-Marsh in the north Cotswolds, and Coleford Garden Centre serves the Forest of Dean side. Alongside the bigger names there are specialist growers dotted around Painswick, Frampton-on-Severn and the Stroud valleys, which are worth seeking out for unusual perennials or shade plants. Planning a route that takes in a large centre and a small nursery on the same day is an easy way to compare range and price.

Where they are: Gloucester (9), Cheltenham (7), Newent (5), Stroud (3), Tewkesbury (3), Berkeley (1), Cinderford (1), Cirencester (1), Coleford (1), Dursley (1), Frampton-on-Severn (1), Gloucester Abbeydale (1) and more.

Gardening in Gloucestershire

Gloucestershire packs several very different soils into one county. The Cotswolds have thin, stony, alkaline soil over limestone that drains fast and suits lavender, rosemary, clematis and most lime-tolerant shrubs. Down in the Severn Vale around Gloucester and Tewkesbury, heavy clay is more common, and land near the river can flood. Parts of the Forest of Dean are more acidic, which can suit rhododendrons and camellias. Steep valleys around Stroud can trap cold air and form frost pockets. Before buying, find out which of these describes the garden: a cheap soil pH kit takes the guesswork out of choosing.

How to choose a garden centre in Gloucestershire

With so many choices in the county, it pays to match the garden centre to the job. For lime-loving plants for a Cotswold garden, a nursery close to the hills is likely to stock what thrives on that soil. If the garden is on Severn Vale clay, ask staff which shrubs and trees cope with wet winters. Independent growers often raise plants on site, so ask what was grown there and what was bought in. Look for healthy roots poking from the pot base rather than plants sitting loose in fresh compost, which can mean they were only potted up recently.

Garden Centres in Gloucestershire: your questions answered

How many garden centres are listed in Gloucestershire?

Garden UK lists 39 garden centres in Gloucestershire, spread across 17 towns and villages including Gloucester, Cheltenham, Newent. Each listing shows the address and contact details on file, and owners can claim their listing to add opening hours and photos.

What grows well in Cotswold gardens?

Plants that enjoy free-draining, alkaline soil do best, including lavender, rosemary, pinks, clematis, scabious, euphorbias and many Mediterranean herbs. Acid-loving plants such as rhododendrons and azaleas usually struggle and are better grown in pots of ericaceous compost.

Is it worth visiting a nursery rather than a garden centre in Gloucestershire?

Yes, if the aim is unusual plants or advice from growers. The county has a number of small specialist nurseries, and they often know exactly what does well locally. Larger centres are handier for compost, tools and garden buildings in one trip.

How do I garden on Severn Vale clay?

Add plenty of well-rotted organic matter each year, avoid digging when the soil is wet, and consider raised beds for vegetables. Choose plants that tolerate heavy soil, such as roses, asters, hostas and many native hedging shrubs.
