Hi bimum,

I'm not 100% sure they have them but it's worth trying the Nunhead Gardener opposite Nunhead station. 020 7635 3443

They have a huge variety of plants so it's worth ringing them or popping along. They are open until 6.30

Thank you Renata. Yes I?ve been there. They have only 2-3 selection of these tree and they?re quite expensive for what you get really. But thank you. 😊

I'm not sure what a 'lollipop tree' is in terms of variant as had assumed it just referenced the shape, but Columbia road is generally really well priced for things like olive trees / bay tree / clipped box tree etc. They don't have as much of a range as you'd get at a garden centre, but what they have is cheap.

Would caution against box shrubs / trees in this area though as the box caterpillar has arrived locally and destroyed all ours!
