Welcome to Harley Nursery

“We grow hardy plants that will thrive in your outdoor space”

Personal Service and Quality

Harley Nursery is a small family-run business established in 1970 by Brian and Suzanne Baker, and run by the Murphy family since 1990. We are situated 2 miles outside the medieval market town of Much Wenlock, overlooking the Wenlock Edge, on the A458 between Shrewsbury and Bridgnorth.

We pride ourselves on offering quality products and personal service, which we achieve by having in-depth knowledge of the plants we sell and offering bespoke advice for our customers – whether they are experienced horticulturalists or brand new to growing.

Since 2019, we have been 100% peat-free for all our own-grown stock as we are extremely mindful of the impact the horticulture industry has had, and continues to have, on our environment. Whilst we are not certified organic we grow with organic principles and are proud to offer advice for growing organically, being ever mindful of working alongside nature, wherever possible.

We have a passion for plants

We are a traditional plant nursery and are passionate about growing quality plants. We propagate a high percentage of our stock, either from seed, from cuttings taken on the nursery, by dividing mature plants, or from plug plants. These are grown on within our nursery beds, tunnels and shade house until the plants are of sufficient size to offer for sale. Plants not grown by us are supplied to us from other carefully selected growers to ensure high-quality plants, which are acclimatised to our climate and will thrive in our area.

We stock a wide range of ornamental and fruit trees, shrubs, climbers, hedging plants, soft fruit bushes, herbaceous, alpines as well as seasonal bedding and vegetable plants.
