Roundtrees Garden Centre is next door to another garden centre to the South West of Bristol in Congresbury. Useful, because if you can't find what you want in one garden centre then simply walk to the other!

This is a totally independent GardenAction opinion of the Roundtrees Garden Centre in Bristol.

Roundtrees is one of three garden centres near Bristol, all of which are family owned and run. Blagdon Water Gardens (click here for our review) is also part of the same family business. This is a medium sized garden centre.

PLANTS

The outside plant area. The outside plant area at Roundtrees is attractively designed and very neat and tidy. It encourages you to wander round and look at the various plants on offer.

It is let down by a complete lack of signs though, making it difficult to find specific plants.


The range of plants is good they looked well cared for. Many of the hardy plants for sale are grown as part of business.

There are few specialities although we noticed that there was a particularly good range of garden trees especially acers (Japanese Maples).

Ornamenta trees


Lots of containers and pots The normal range of garden equipment is available including tools, composts, fencing, fertilisers, weed killers etc.

The range of containers was extensive as can be seen by clicking the picture on the left.
