The Boma Garden Centre
Kentish Town
19 May, 2020
Tucked in London's concrete jungle, there's a miscellany of garden centres, and thanks to easing lockdown restrictions, several of them are coming back into bloom. Whether you're a green-fingered gardener or simply want some leaves to brighten up a desk space, these are the capital's best places to find the plants, pots and tools you need.
While some lockdown measures are still in place, do check ahead for altered opening times and the garden centres' individual social distancing policies. Many are offering click-and-collect services as well as no-contact delivery.

Backdropped by Richmond's meadows, this jumble of greenhouses and gardens have a certain bohemian vibe that's unlike most traditional garden centres. Carved out of the grounds of Petersham House in the 70s, it was bought by positive-living enthusiasts Gael and Francesco Boglione in 1997 and transformed into the world-renowned plant nursery and Michelin-starred café you see today. Whiling away several hours here is easy.
