Bewdley Orchids: Conservation in your garden

News
We are now open for plant sales, which from this year we will be doing via our talks, rather than online. Of course, books on growing orchids in your garden are still available from our website, and at our talks.
We also supply young orchids in sterile culture (at least 5/jar) at £30, which you can pick up at any of the talks that we attend. Although we routinely take these to our talks, it is worth checking for availability if you would like something specific.
Talks cover growing orchids in your garden and how we go about getting plants from seed to flowerpot. We also touch on the larger subject of culturing a garden meadow. If you would like a talk on garden orchids please get in touch via our contact page.
We hope to see as many of you at our talks as possible. Don't forget that if you have any questions or queries, you can get in touch using the Contact page.

Welcome to Bewdley Orchids in 2022
We have started selling plants at talks, as well as our book, How to Grow Native Orchids directly from the website. This will hopefully encourage more people to start growing our lovely native orchids and to develop garden meadows.
Best wishes,
Dr Wilson Wall, Technical Director, Bewdley Orchids.
We celebrate the native orchids of Great Britain, growing them from seed under sterile laboratory conditions and selling them when they are ready for planting directly into the garden or meadow. We hope you will join us in helping to conserve these lovely wild plants.
We occasionally get requests for flowering-sized plants, which tend to be much older than our usual plants. If you do want flowering sized plants, send us a message as a special request, if possible a year in advance. This may seem a long time, but will give us the opportunity to choose the best plants to keep for you.
For those that are new to growing orchids in the garden or meadow, we recommend Common Spotted Orchids as an excellent starting point.
There are around 50 native orchid in Great Britain. We currently stock a small number of these and are adding to our plant list all the time. We only sell recognised species, not varieties or crosses, and all grown from seed.
For those not familiar with our native orchids, the scrolling photographs at the top of the page are all to be found in the wild, but sadly not very often. Growing them in your garden is the best thing you can do to help them. But never, ever dig them up. We grow them from seed, so they never compromise wild populations.
Our stock can be used to produce a naturalised meadow, or reintroduce plants into a landscape where they once thrived but have been lost. It is our aim to help enhance the biodiversity of gardens, meadows and orchards by encouraging the conservation of these plants.
Our book How to Grow Native Orchids in Gardens Large and Small, is now available to order from our web site, or from Green Books. You can, of course order it from your local bookshop or go to Amazon.co.uk. This unique book gives lots of information for the orchid grower and we are proud to be associated with the conservation credentials of Green Books. If you click on the link above you will go to their catalogue page, where it is possible to order a copy.
The latest information on talks we will be giving can be found on our Talks page. We do hope we will see as many of you at these as can make it. We are always happy to help and advise on any aspect of orchid cultivation.
Many thanks to Dr David Morgan for providing the header photograph on our Catalogue and Contact pages.
