In 2018, we proudly celebrated our 40th planting season and marked four decades of growing, supplying, and installing quality trees and hedging since our founding in 1978.

King & Co Tree Celebrates Four Decades of Growing!

King & Co remains a family-run business, owned and operated by the original King family. Our passion for trees and commitment to outstanding service have never wavered. At our Rayne nursery you won’t find coffee shops or retail concessions, just a dedicated team focused on growing and delivering premium trees and expert installations.

Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of contributing to a wide range of high-profile projects, supporting infrastructure and beautification efforts. These include the Stansted Rail Link, Sizewell Power Station, the Braintree and Martlesham bypasses, and HMP Chelmsford. Our esteemed clients have also included Williams F1, Lord R.A. Butler, Felsted and Hallingbury Schools, the RHS, Essex Wildlife Trust, and Braxted Park. We even played a role in the clearance for the Essex section of the M25.

We’ve also been honoured with numerous industry accolades, including a Gold at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, recognising our horticultural expertise at the highest level. In 2019, our nursery welcomed then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson as part of his Conservative leadership campaign tour.

As we celebrated our 40th birthday, we extended our heartfelt thanks to all our customers, both past and present. We look forward to another four decades of growing!
