The Palm Centre

We grow, source and propagate a large variety of plants from the very rare and unusual to the more frequently used plants popular in UK horticulture today. Our nursery is 5 acres including glasshouses and outdoor display areas and is situated in the old kitchen gardens of Ham House by the River Thames in Richmond. Opened in 1989 by Martin Gibbons, the Chelsea Gold Medal winning Palm Centre in Richmond (south west London) is the UK's original and premier nursery for hardy exotics. We supply retail, trade, wholesale and on-line customers with the full range of hardy plants including palms, ferns, bamboos, grasses, olives, trees, arid and herbaceous plants. Our website is continually updated.
