Campanula Kent Belle

We love this Campanula hybrida Kent Belle we have in stock just now. It has the most beautiful large violet-blue bell-like glossy drooping flowers with medium green leaves. This stunning plant has been given the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Perfect for adding a dash of colour and interest to the garden.

Good Enough To Eat.....


One of the things we pride ourselves on here at the Mill is the amount of homegrown stock we produce. In stock just now we have some of the most fragrant Rosemary, you really would have to smell it to believe it!!!

We have Rosemarinus Green Ginger from £6.95 for a 3 litre pot - it has a wonderful aroma of rosemary mixed with ginger and Miss Jessops Upright from £6.35 for a 3 litre pot.

Rosemary is so easy to grow and both varieties can be used in cooking.....perfect with roast chicken and wild garlic!

Dry Stone Wall and Archway



The dry stone wall and archway that Richard Love has been creating for us, here at the Mill in our Dell Garden, is now complete.

Richard has worked hard over the past few weeks, to create this stunning feature which blends into the landscape. We are delighted with the result and lucky to have had such a skilled and experienced dry stone waller to put our ideas into something solid.

The next stage is to have a custom made gate created......

Wildlife Garden

A mix of Budleja and Lavatera would fit in perfectly within a Wildlife Garden.


Recently we helped out a local school with their Wildlife Garden Project. Why not read more about it in this West Lothian article:-
