MissKing Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 East Dulwich gardeners... Where do you buy your plants and supplies from? Is there anywhere local worth a look? I just got some tomato plants from the flower shop by the plough, but there isn't a huge selection. Any tips?

MissKing Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 I don't drive so they are all a bit of a mission to get to. Such a shame there doesn't seem to be much in ED itself...

EPB Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Both Alleyns and Croxted Park will deliver, and are small enough to be able to discuss what you want/need over the phone. Not sure about Shannon's, but you could give them a ring...

spark67 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 There's the flower shop by The Barcelona tapas bar on lordship lane near where the old harvester building is on that row of shops there, he always has a large selection of bedding plants & some shrubs, and planters with flowers already in outside, I bought a nice selection of heathers for winter window boxes there, and geraniums in the summer.
