Established for over 30 years, Rowan Garden Centre has undergone extensive renovations since its acquisition by Alison in 2010. The site, located just outside Chalfont St Giles, is now home to clear, spacious greenhouses and large polytunnels, housing a wide variety of plants and gardening products. Our location, near Amersham, Beaconsfield, Gerrards Cross, Uxbridge, and Rickmansworth, allows us to deliver our products with a personal touch to customers in and around Buckinghamshire.
