Our Story
Farmyard Nurseries began as a small family enterprise on the edge of Llandysul and has grown steadily through a single, unwavering commitment: to grow the finest hardy plants available anywhere in Britain.
Located in the lush, mild valleys of Carmarthenshire in West Wales, our growing conditions are ideal — long, damp growing seasons and mild winters allow us to cultivate a remarkable breadth of hardy perennials, grasses, ferns and shrubs.
Our RHS Gold Medals are a testament to decades of dedication. We exhibit plants we are genuinely proud of, and every plant that leaves our nursery by mail order or over the counter must meet the same exacting standard.
We are a proper, working nursery. Come and visit us — wander the beds, seek advice from people who have spent their lives growing these plants, and take home something exceptional.

Customer Reviews
Ordered a selection of hostas and ferns for a shaded border. Every plant arrived in superb condition, beautifully packed. Far better than anything from the local garden centre — these are proper, well-grown specimens.
I visited the nursery whilst on holiday in West Wales and cannot recommend it highly enough. The breadth of varieties is extraordinary and the staff knowledge is second to none. I shall be ordering by post without hesitation.
The Astrantia and Hemerocallis I ordered last spring have put on an extraordinary display. Plants clearly grown with real knowledge and care. This is what a proper nursery looks like.
