An Exotic Plant Nursery Tour - 30+ Tropical Style Plant Ideas from Linden Nurseries!

Today's video is a plant nursery tour around Linden Nurseries in North Lincolnshire (Ermine Street, Appleby, Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, DN15 0BZ )- not an ad but they were kind enough to let me in early to show you some of their amazing exotic and tropical style plant deliveries. There's some beautiful specimen plants here, some great value budget tropical plants and hundreds of container and plant pot ideas too. This is my favourite local nursery and it's great to see a smaller place really going for it with olives, yuccas and all kinds of statement and feature plants. Judging by how many they're selling (there was a queue waiting for it to open!) there's a lot of interest in Mediterranean and exotic themed gardens locally too! Today's video is a nursery tour looking at my top plants for exotic effect with care tips plus the beautiful structural specimen plants I'd go for if I wanted a centrepiece for my garden with instant impact. There's so many tropical plant ideas!
