In light of the new septic tank charges, Constructed Wetlands offer a proven, environmentally sound way of bringing most septic tanks up to an acceptable standard without the need to install new systems which are mechanical and need annual maintenance.


We operate a small Plant Nursery where we specialise in growing wetland plants for Constructed Wetlands. We supply:
 

• Phragmites australis – Common Reed
• Typha latifolia – Bulrush
•  Phalaris arundinacea – Canary Reed Grass
• Glyceria - sweet - grass
  

We also grow native shrubs such as Holly, Yew and hedging plants.

Contract growing orders are welcome.
