Waterside Nursery
We are Leicestershire, UK based specialist growers of both marginal water plants and deep water plants for ponds and also miniature water plants and waterlilies for patio container pond features sold to you (where relevant) as ready potted plants in mesh baskets using aquatic compost.
You are in our online shop for your pond -
We are a family run company based in Sharnford, Leicestershire operating since 1995.
Our nursery is only open to the public by appointment so that we know we will be here when you visit.
Please phone 07931 557082 or email - contact us to make arrangements and get directions.
We are not always at the nursery as we exhibit our water plants and container ponds as RHS Floral Marquee Gold Medalists including a Gold Medal at Chelsea Flower Show 2011 for aquatic plants.
We have been RHS exhibitors since 2005 and our medals for the last 2 years are:
- 2011 - Gold Award at Harrogate Spring Flower Show and a Gold Medal at The Chelsea Flower Show. Gold also at RHS NEC Gardener's World and Tatton Park.
- 2010 - Premiere Award at Harrogate Spring Flower Show, Silver Gilt Medals at Malvern Spring and our first Chelsea Flower Show followed by 3 Gold Medals at NEC Gardeners World, Hampton Court and Tatton Park.
To see this years list of show dates please see our Shows page.
July 2008 - The Garden magazine (The RHS Journal) printed an article written by Roy Lancaster following his visit to Waterside Nursery earlier in the year.
"The fine range of plants for ponds and steamsides offered by Waterside Nursery in Leicestershire took Roy Lancaster back to days when he first began appreciacting aquatic plants".......

We are listed as a supplier in the RHS Plantfinder where specialist Nurseries with unusual plants on offer are listed so that customers have one trusted source to find that elusive specimen and we are part of the HEA (Horticultural Exhibitors Association) 'From my Nursery to your Garden Scheme' which aims to identify for you, the customer, the Nurseries that grow their own plants rather than those that buy in their stock.
For good quality hardy herbaceous perennials we recommend you use the link below to Redman Hardy Plants.
