British and Irish Flora Suppliers List
Seed: Grasses, rushes, & sedges
This is a list of businesses which produce and/or sell plants and/or seed of British and Irish Flora, some of which have adopted Flora locale and Plantlife's Code of Practice, indicated by the
symbol. Owing to popular demand, the list is also being expanded to include suppliers of traditional varieties of orchard trees (while the general principles laid out in the Code of Practice may still apply, the Code has not been updated to include this category of stock). Inclusion of companies and suppliers on this list is at the discretion of Flora locale. By using this list it will be deemed that you understand the conditions described in the Disclaimer and information page. To apply for inclusion on the Suppliers List please email us.
For further information on collecting, buying and sourcing native flora, including licensing requirements for plant or seed collection from the wild, go to the Planting and Stock pages. Specific guidance is also published in the Flora locale Advisory Note Buying native flora and in Go Native! Guidelines for planting projects.
An individual company name may be clickable to provide access to an individual web page that provides more detailed information about that supplier's services and products.
