'Live on the Lawn'
25th Anniversary Celebration
Friday 1st August, 6pm - 10pm
2025 marks 25 years of Ashbrook Nursery, and we are inviting you to celebrate with us!
A first of its kind event for us, we will have live music on our café lawn from local band 'Funk & Disorderly', food served in our café, and a pop up bar provided by popular Arbroath deli, Smithies.
We will also have a few outdoor games to keep the kids entertained.
Gates will open at 6pm, with music starting shortly after.
Take advantage of our 'Early Bird' offer and book by Monday 14th July to get 50% off the price of your second adult ticket!
Garden Stories - Sally's 'Fiery' Border
Why not try Erysimums (perennial wallflower) and Tulips together this spring? There are endless combinations of colours to experiment with - be as bold or as subtle as you like!
I accidentally created this border one spring after banishing these red tulips from the main borders to the front of the house. I’d sown a perennial seed mix previously and not thought much about it. It’s a tricky border that often gets flooded over winter by water running down the road. By happy accident these lovely golden perennial wallflowers came up and intermingled with the tulips. They seed about the border and have completely changed my mind about hot colours in a border!’
'Potty About Primroses'
At Ashbrook Nursery we are just ‘Potty about Primroses’. We don’t claim to be ‘experts’, but we are certainly enthusiastic about these lovely plants which delight us from autumn through to summer.

Defibrillator Fundraiser
A huge thank you to everyone who has donated to our defibrillator fundraiser. We have now managed to purchase a defibrillator which is now located at the entrance to our garden centre.
Our 'Panto Trail' was a hugely popular fundraiser over Christmas with lots of entrants to our competition, and an impressive number of you finding all the answers, and even finding extras which we didn't create! With so many full marks, we had to pick a winner based on most clues noted, so well done to Lucyna, Alicja, Robert & Marcin who have won a £30 Ashbrook voucher!
Our displays are shown in the gallery below.
