PLANTS AREA

The outdoor plants area is small but the owners have packed in as many plants as possible. It is attractively laid out with good signs to the various groups of plants.

You'll find most of the common garden plants and shrubs here plus a few more unusual ones. All the plants looked to be in good condition and well watered. The prices also were reasonable for the area. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable.

WATER FEATURES
There were a few water features in the outdoor sales area.

SPECIALITIES
The Boma Garden Centre offer garden design, landscape and maintenance services. These are comprehensive services and they range from one-off garden maintenance tasks to complete landscaping of large gardens. If you live in Kentish Town and require any of these services then the Boma should be on your list of possible suppliers.

TOILETS
None that we saw.

CAFE
There is no cafe at the Boma Garden centre

CAR PARKING
There is a very small car park for customers but don't depend on there always being spaces. The surrounding area has on-road parking (at a charge). This looked OK mid-week when we visited but the situation at weekends i9s likely to be difficult.
