|
| Roundtrees Garden Centre is next door to another
garden centre to the South West of Bristol in Congresbury. Useful,
because if you can't find what you want in one garden centre then
simply walk to the other! |
This is a totally independent GardenAction review of the
Roundtrees Garden Centre in
Bristol.
Roundtrees is one of three garden centres near Bristol,
all of which are family owned and run. Blagdon Water Gardens (click
here for our review) is also part of the same family business.
This is a medium sized garden centre.
PLANTS
 |
The outside plant area at Roundtrees is attractively
designed and very neat and tidy. It encourages you to wander round
and look at the various plants on offer.
It is let down by a complete lack of signs though, making it
difficult to find specific plants. |
| The range of plants is good they looked well cared
for. Many of the hardy plants for sale are grown as part of
business. There are few specialities although we noticed that
there was a particularly good range of garden trees especially acers
(Japanes Maples). |
 |
 |
The normal range of garden equipment is available
including tools, composts, fencing, fertilsers, weed killers etc.
The range of containers was extensive as can be seen by clicking the
picture on the left. |
