Alexandra Nurseries

Alexandra Nurseries is a small independent garden centre located in Penge, South East London. Originally used by the caretaker of Alexandra Cottages, a small Victorian estate built by the 'Metropolitan Association for Improving the Dwellings of the Industrious Classes', the site had been left derelict since the 1960's. John Parker took it over in 2012 to open the nursery. Amongst the British grown plants, pieces of vintage garden-ware are displayed, creating a rustic oasis where you can also pop in for a cup of coffee.
