Visit to Rapkyns Nursery, Broad Oak. Walk, Talk and Cake

An Afternoon at Rapkyns Nursery

Walk, Talk & Cake with Morag

Join us for a relaxed and informative afternoon at Rapkyns Nursery, an independent, family-run nursery nestled in the East Sussex countryside between Mayfield and Heathfield.

For more than 30 years, Rapkyns has been growing plants in its beautiful rural setting and has built up an extensive collection of both traditional favourites and more unusual varieties.

The nursery offers a wonderful selection of shrubs, climbers and perennials and is particularly well known for its impressive collection of Salvias.

At the heart of Rapkyns is the belief that, with a little careful planning and the right choice of plants, it is possible to create a beautiful and colourful garden with interest throughout the year.

Meet Morag

The nursery is run by Morag, a passionate plants woman with a wealth of horticultural knowledge and experience.

During our visit, Morag will take us on a guided walk around the nursery, sharing her knowledge of the plants they grow, offering advice on choosing the right plants for different garden conditions and explaining how best to grow and care for them.

There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions, pick up ideas for your own garden and discover some varieties you may not have come across before.

And, of course, no good afternoon outing would be complete without cake!

The Afternoon Includes

A guided walk around Rapkyns Nursery, an informal talk with Morag, plenty of opportunity to ask questions and cake to finish the afternoon.
