Thompson & Morgan - Open Weekend

What is an open weekend?
Every year, we carry out extensive plant trials to discover potential new introductions to the T&M range and ensure the varieties we already stock are still meeting our performance standards. Open weekend gives visitors a unique opportunity to see our trial grounds up close and to get a sneak preview of newly developed experimental varieties some of which have won awards for their innovative qualities. For example, Buddleja Buzz™ which won Best New Plant at the Grower of the Year Awards in 2010.

As well as seeing all these new varieties, you will also have the opportunity of viewing T&M's beautiful show gardens, see many of the plants from the next year's range planted up and in full bloom, meet our experts, see demonstrations, get expert advice and find out more about the company.
