About us
We are a small, North-Yorkshire based, specialist nursery, and we grow, display and sell Carnivorous Plants at Shows and Fairs and at the nursery. We started as a backyard nursery in Knaresborough, and moved to the beautiful village of Scampston in 2015 to enable us to grow the nursery. When we started up, our shows were mainly in Yorkshire, but we have now gone further afield. We display our plants in several RHS Flower Shows as well as our local Harrogate Flower Shows and the Great Yorkshire Show. We are particularly proud of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show Gold medal at our first attempt! By now we have 3 Chelsea Gold Medals and many more RHS golds. To achieve what we said we wanted right from the start (Best in Show at the Great Yorkshire Show) was brilliant.
Peter Walker (Wack) and his long suffering assistant (and wife) Helleentje, run the business, together with Billy the rescue lurcher. Peter started many years ago with a love of plants in general, but always with a special interest in unusual and/or exotic varieties. After stumbling across a nursery selling pitcher plants (while on holiday in Whitby!), we caught the carnivorous bug!
We sell our plants at shows and fairs – for specific shows and dates see ‘Shows & Fairs’ -, and online. We are happy for people to visit the nursery, but strictly by appointment only, please.
Other than plants we also sell photo’s, T-shirts, compost, pots and other sundries, which are available in our online shop.
We Provide…..
- Care and advice with every plant sold that is easy to follow.
- Carefully packaged plants to ensure they arrive in the same exceptional condition they left us in.
- We create the ideal compost for all your carnivorous plants and sell it in a variety of pack sizes.
