Environmental Policy & About Us 

Environmental Policy 

At Prenplants Sussex Ltd we have a strong commitment to 

sustainability. We are aware that our actions have the potential for high 

impact on the environment and, as such, we are careful to limit that 

impact, as much as possible, through good practice and management 

of our resources. 

Peat Free Compost – All of our plants are grown in renewable, peat 

free compost that is 100% eco-friendly, helping to protect natural peat 

bogs and their eco-systems. Our fertiliser used in the compost mix is 

slow-release, preventing excessive nutrient leaching. 

Recycling – Our pots and plastics are made from recycled plastic and 

we recycle, where possible. We favour the use of renewable resources 

and are keen to re-use materials such as wood and paper. We deliver 

our plants in corex trays; these too are re-usable and we encourage 

customers to return them to us in good condition for a refund 

(equivalent to 2p per plant off of your next order). 

Pests, disease and control of weeds – Chemical use is kept to a 

minimum, always looking for alternatives to keep any pests and 

diseases at bay, we currently make use of diverse biological controls 

in our Integrated Pest Management plan including a fortnightly 

application of Compost Tea. Our resident chickens, ducks and nursery 

cats also help with pest control. Weeding is mainly undertaken by hand 

and we endeavour to use preventative measures by using, for example, 

bark as a mulch. 

Water Usage – We are keen to be as efficient and effective as 

possible with our watering timetable, making sure water is conserved 

as much as possible. 

Composting – All biodegradable waste is composted on site in a bid 

to further reduce our carbon footprint 

Heated beds – The heated beds on the nursery are monitored when 

in-use and adjusted accordingly with both growing requirements and 

energy consumption in mind. 

About Us

Thank you to all of our customers old and new for your continued support.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do: our ethos is to conserve an ecological balance 

by avoiding depletion of natural resources. Prenplants use peat free compost, recycled pots and 

returnable corex trays. Many of our perennial plants are grown from seed, cuttings, stock plants, 

field grown bare root and micro propagated young plants. 

Plants are offered in 1 and 2 litre pots for our main range. 10 and 5 litre pots are offered to show 

off specially selected specimen plants when they are at their best.
