A GARDEN centre in Aldermaston has undergone some exciting changes following its merger with the Hillier Garden Centre group.

The changes at the Rosebourne garden centre include bringing a vast array of grown plants, seasonal events, and tasty food offerings to the people of Basingstoke.

Last year Hillier expanded its garden centre portfolio with the acquisition of the Rosebourne Garden Centre. Since then, the company has been working on exciting changes throughout the centre, bringing it in line with the Hillier family and providing visitors with exclusive Hillier perks.

Visitors to the centre can expect to see the same friendly faces they are used to, as well as the renowned Rosebourne food hall, with some exciting new introductions such as top-quality Hillier plants, interactive seasonal workshops, and the Hillier Gardening Club.

When visitors arrive at the Aldermaston centre, its relocated entrance will take customers on a journey through the plant centre where they will find seasonal plants before heading into the leisure area.

One of the most notable changes is its restaurant which has been transformed into the  Hillier Mulberry and Thyme restaurant brand.

The welcoming restaurant will include some old favourites, as well as some exciting new additions. The Rosebourne food hall will stay.

A lot of the plants on offer have been grown at the Hiller Nurseries, which are located in Hampshire and grow over one million plants a year in peat-free compost. With four new plants launching at BBC Gardeners World Spring Fair in April, shoppers at Weyhill will be among the first to be able to purchase these exciting new varieties in the centre.
