King and Co are Plant Healthy

King and Co have recently passed the Plant Healthy audit.

We’re proud to share that King and Co has successfully retained its Plant Healthy certification for another year. This achievement reflects our ongoing commitment to high standards in plant health and biosecurity. As a certified Plant Healthy nursery, retail, and trade outlet, we ensure that every tree and plant we supply is responsibly sourced, expertly grown, carefully handled and treated with the utmost care and respect to biosecurity.

Why Choose Plant Healthy?

The Plant Healthy scheme plays a vital role in protecting the horticultural industry, cultivated plants, and natural habitats. It does this by reducing the risk of introducing and spreading destructive plant pests throughout the supply chain. Supply tenders for tree and hedge planting projects increasingly require suppliers to hold this certification!

What does this mean for King and Co Customers?

At King and Co, we stay in regular contact with DEFRA and APHA to remain fully aligned with current plant health regulations. For example, we closely monitor and respond to Oak Processionary Moth (OPM) movement restrictions, which currently impact areas like London and Essex. Because of this proactive approach, we can dynamically ensure our trees, plants, and garden centre materials are protected, which means our customers receive healthy trees and shrubs.

The scheme reviews every step of our process, from grower to garden. Our certification isn’t just a checkbox, it reflects a voluntary commitment to following the horticultural industry’s best practices!

Shopping online

You can buy trees, hedging, shrubs and topiary online by browsing our website.
If you do not see a plant or size that is suitable for you then please call as we stock a wide variety of plants in our tree nursery. It’s worth noting that many other websites sell other people’s stock (i.e. they act as an agent) so you cannot view the products at their own site. At King & Co, all of our advertised plants are available for viewing at our tree nursery in Rayne, near Braintree, situated just over an hours drive out of London.

Our knowledgeable and experienced tree nursery staff are always contactable via phone on 01376 340469 or if you have any questions regarding any of our trees or accessories.

If you cannot see what you require on our website, please complete the enquiry form. We will give it our urgent attention and will get back to you shortly with a solution that meets your needs.
