Today’s video is a visit to Dirt Cheap Plants near Sheffield, Yorkshire to see an incredible tropical style jungle garden and some amazing U.K. hardy exotic plants for sale. Janet and her husband Graham completely transformed their small U.K. garden into a lush tropical paradise - a real passion for jungle planting, exotic flowers and huge palms led to an amazing outdoor space and large collection of plants for propagation. Following the events of the pandemic, they found themselves at home, struggling to make meet but worked incredibly hard to produce masks to do their bit and help others cope with the tricky times. You can find out more about them on their website in the about us section:

As more and more people came to pick masks up though, one question got asked more and more… do you sell any of these stunning plants? Beauties like Trachycarpus palms, Musa basjoo bananas, Tetrapanax papryrifer ‘Rex’ and Dicksonia antartica tree ferns definitely make an impression along with tropical flowers from Hedychium gingers, Begonia grandis, Agapanthus and more. Fast forward a few years and with a lot of hard work, entrepreneurialism and a real love of exotic plants, Dirt Cheap Plants has become a thriving small business. With more exotic and specimen plants than a lot large garden centres but with the expertise and knowledge to help customers care for them it’s clear to see how their garden and enthusiasm has inspired so many people in Yorkshire and beyond to start their own tropical garden journey!
