New Products

Here at Millais Nurseries, we like to keep our range of rhododendrons and azaleas as fresh and as interesting as possible. We do this by carefully selecting and trialling certain new plant introductions from the rhododendron world’s top breeders, including our own hybridisation program. We also source and grow a selection of varieties that may have been around for a few years but are new to our nursery and collection.
