We are Ray and Wendy Bates who have been running Rotherview Nursery for 33 years. We grow all our own plants and have a wide range of alpines, ferns and perennials. Not all of these are listed in the shop due to small quantities, but please contact us if you are looking for unusual varieties.
Our nursery is one acre in size. There is a designated retail area, but customers are allowed around the growing beds and tunnels.
We are planting beds at the nursery for people to see plants growing in the ground and have also created a crevice garden on the nursery
From September 2020 we are making every effort to start growing in ‘eco-friendly’ pots. Rather than black or terracota these pots are ‘taupe’ in colour and can therefore be put into household recycling bins. We hope to have completed the switch by this time next year.
