Ever wondered where you can buy a particular plant? Then look no further. The RHS Plant Finder 2025 is an A-Z directory of 70,847 plant names and where to buy them. First published in 1987, and providing a snapshot of British garden plants and trends for more than 38 years, the RHS Plant Finder is a horticultural bible. Published once a year, it lists all the plants available from more than 350 nurseries in the UK. You can identify the plant you want and see its stockists nationwide alongside website, mail order information, opening times and contact details for each nursery.
Please note that with this edition, the naming convention has changed, indicating the upcoming rather than the present year (hence this edition is not called RHS Plant Finder 2024)
The 2025 edition contains around 1430 plants that have never been included in RHS Plant Finder before. There are 23 new plants in the new plant feature, and this edition includes a special feature on cultivating with peat-free composts (which is an update on the latest research and advice). The listings include 6,082 Award of Garden Merit Plants which is a great indicator of quality. The award is based on RHS trials and since 2013 listings have been reviewed on a rolling basis. The award is intended as a practical guide for gardenrs and is given to plants that are:
- excellent for ordinary use in appropriate conditions available
- of good constitution
- essentially stable in form and colour
- reasonably resistant to pests and diseases
