| Are all Wyevale garden centres the same? We have
reviewed quite a few and no, they are not all the same. Read on to
find out how we rate the Wyevale garden centre at Stratford on
Avon. |
This is a totally independent GardenAction review of the
Wyevale Garden Centre in
Stratford on Avon.
This Wyevale garden centre is on the outskirts of
Stratford on Avon although it's in the Coventry postcode area. It's a
medium to large garden centre and will provide you with almost all your
gardening needs
PLANTS
 |
The outdoor plant area had wide aisles and the
layout was fine although uninspiring. Signs were informative and
clear and made finding specific plants an easy task. We had a good
look at the plants and they were healthy, well-watered and in the
correct pot sizes. |
| Maybe it was the time of year, but when we visited
this Wyevale garden centre we didn't immediately notice any signs
showing us that the plants were guaranteed. But all Wyevale hardy
plants come with an impressive 5 year no quibble guarantee. This
should inspire you with confidence in their plants, we are certainly
impressed. |
|
The range of plants was comprehensive and at the time of our visit
there was a great range of young conifer trees for sale. At one
end of the outdoor plant area there was a good display of hot tubs. |
 |
Although there was no dedicated information centre at
this garden centre, there were plenty of staff available for asking
questions.
