Rowan Garden Centre

Nestled on Gorelands Lane, just outside Chalfont St Giles, Rowan Garden Centre has been a cherished haven for plant lovers for over three decades. Alison, the current owner, inherited the garden centre in 2010 and has dedicated herself to its growth and development. Through extensive renovations, including the clearing of dilapidated greenhouses and the installation of spacious polytunnels, she has transformed Rowan into a thriving botanical paradise.

Over the years, Rowan has cultivated a reputation for offering an exceptional selection of plants, all carefully sourced from reputable UK growers. The centre takes pride in fostering strong relationships with these specialists, who are passionate about nurturing healthy and vibrant plants. While Rowan does grow a variety of shrubs and perennial plants on its site, the majority of its stock comprises carefully selected offerings from its trusted network of growers.

The commitment to quality extends beyond plant sourcing. At Rowan, each plant receives meticulous hand attention, being nurtured with regular watering, deadheading, and a genuine love for horticultural excellence. This dedication ensures that every plant leaving the centre is in peak condition, ready to flourish in its new garden home.
