Clock House Nursery is a retail nursery still specialising in plants and essential gardening requirements and not the trivial paraphernalia that "garden centres" may choose to sell. In our range of plants and products, you will not find scented candles, gift cards or hand-made chocolates. You will find an enormous range of top quality shrubs, perennials, patio and bedding plants, mostly grown on site at our lowest honest prices, accompanied by a comprehensive range of bulbs, seeds, composts and garden sundries, also at very low prices. Our philosophy has always been that the best service we can offer our customers is to offer top quality plants and products at our lowest possible prices.

In January 1928 Archibald John Mills and family arrived at the Clock House nursery, which is now owned and run by the third generation of the same family. The Forty Hill site in Enfield, previously part of the Clock House estate, grew fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers for the main house.

In the 1970s many nurseries became "garden centres", adding furniture, barbecues and all manner of non-plant items to their range. Unfortunately in many cases they neglected the quality of their plants in the process.

We felt that plants should always take centre stage and we expanded the range and variety as much as possible. Although the appearance of the site is constantly changing, nothing fundamentally has. We believe that the nursery is still unique in that, as far as possible, plants of the highest quality are produced on site to sell direct to the public at our lowest possible prices.

Methods of production have changed considerably. In the past, hundreds of different plants were produced by hand, now, thousands of shrubs perennials & hardy plants are produced alongside millions of bedding and patio plants, using the latest machinery, robotic trans-planters, automatic irrigation and computer controlled benches.

Most growing is still done on site, but due to lack of space, some of the larger specimen and rarer plants are produced by our associate growers here in the U.K., Italy, France, Holland, Belgium and New Zealand. But no matter where or how our plants are grown, the same core idea of top quality with low prices and a no-nonsense approach remains. This has always been our philosophy and remains so for our future.
