Wyevale Nurseries in Hereford has formally unveiled its 95th anniversary logo and launched the celebration of its deep-rooted horticultural heritage this month (October 2025).
The award-winning, leading commercial grower was established in 1930 by Harry Williamson*, who was an innovative grower and began the business by cultivating roses and selling them by mail order.
Heather Williamson, Harry’s granddaughter and Wyevale Nurseries’ Chairman, explains: “It’s such an honour to have been part of the fabric of British horticulture for 95 years. As one of the UK’s largest and most established growers of plants for garden centres and the amenity market including hedging and transplant stock, our legacy is built on a deep understanding of the land, the landscape sector and garden centre industry, and the evolving needs of our customers.”
Wyevale Nurseries is a family-run business that is a leading wholesale supplier of British sown and grown trees and plants.
To celebrate its milestone year, it has officially launched its 95th anniversary logo, which will be used this and next year, and is working towards marking its birthday more fully in 2026, with bigger plans being made for its 100th year in 2030.
Heather adds: “It’s very exciting to be so close now to our 100th anniversary, which is just over four years away. We’re so proud of our achievements – there are so many to name, but one of those is being one of the biggest producers of one + one transplants in the country – a core part of our offering for decades. These young plants form the backbone of countless woodland, hedgerow and rewilding projects across the UK. That’s amazing and it means we’ve had a hugely significant positive impact on the environment.
