About Us

Devon Croft Nursery is a family business, established in 1990. James Richardson is the 2nd generation to embark on the business, although many a generation of his family have been nurserymen in the Newark area. Over the years, Devon Croft has developed into an extensively stocked nursery and remains the only one in Newark.

The important aspect of our business is that the vast majority of plants we sell are home-grown, on site.

The nursery stocks a range of Bamboo and ornamental and fruit trees. Also in stock are dwarf conifers, lleylandii, herbaceous perennials, alpines, climbers, clematis, ferns, hostas and grasses.

Devon Croft Nursery specialise in annual bedding which is available in multi-packs, basket and patio plants, geraniums and over 60 varieties of fuchsia. The nursery grows over half a million plants for the summer season.

Hanging baskets are available for both summer and winter colour. These can be bought off-the-peg or ordered early in the season for collection later.

Many people are keen to grow their own food, whether it be in their garden, allotment or on their patio. Throughout spring, the nursery offers a choice of fruit and vegetable plants including runner beans, French beans, peppers, courgettes, aubergines, melons, cucumbers, strawberry plants and 12 varieties of tomato.

For the ambitious gardener or landscaper with a large planting scheme in mind, the nursery is able to source and supply in quantity, from a wide range of specialist wholesale nurseries throughout the UK.
