gardening advice service

Whether you’ve got a query about a specific plant, or a gardening problem you don’t know how to resolve, or just need some help to choose plants for your garden, we’ll do our best to help. 

Merryhatton Garden Centre offers a free gardening advice service, which is provided by Madee Chandler, former Horticultural Adviser at the Royal Horticultural Society Wisley.

If you have a gardening query or problem you’d like some help with, you can leave details by phone, by email or in person and Madee will get back to you. Our typical response time is three days, though some enquiries that need research may take longer.

It's helpful to have as much information as possible so please use our enquiry form to make sure we have all the details.
