Woods Garden Centre

Since it opened in 1974, Woods of berkhamsted is a most unusual garden centre situated on the high street in the centre of berkhamsted. The largest independently owned shop in the town, it fronts the high street where there is a country-style gift shop containing an ever-changing collection of presents and novelties.

Beyond this deceptively modest frontage lies a vast expanse cleverly laid out so that there is a lot to choose from in a relatively small area. With space at a premium, this distinguished centre uses every square meter to best advantage. A conservatory at the front houses a profusion of flowering pot plants and foliage houseplants, arranged in colourful displays in this ideal environment.

One special feature of this attractive garden centre is the comprehensive display of water plants and features, including fountains, ponds and pumps. The gift department offers ranges of clocks, pictures, ornaments and other items with a horticultural flavour, as well as cards, gifts and novelties.

The traditional garden centre suffers from none of the distractions found in others - it remains resolutely unlike a supermarket, focusing instead on a carefully selected range of high-quality plants, garden furniture and supplies and equipment. There are carefully selected collections of plants, including herbs, alpines and climbers and a range of scented plants for the garden. The friendly uniformed staff can offer helpful advice on all aspects of buying for the home and garden.

The centre also supply a range of more then 30 helpful and comprehensive easy-to-follow leaflets on all manner of gardening jobs, offering tips and advice on topics such as shady corners, weeding, summer-flowering bulbs, window boxes, climbing plants, lawns, gardening for children, hanging baskets and much more.
