Our Company


Founded twelve years ago, we are a family business established in the south of France in the small commune of Opio. Driven by a need to create something special, we set out to build a nursery with an emphasis on finding and caring for beautiful plants and to make them available to our clients, a philosophy that is sadly becoming somewhat a rarity in the retail sector. Now, twelve years on, we are still constantly evolving and improving, while still retaining those ideals that we started with years before. Both the garden centre and its sister landscape and construction company, "EGC Design and Créations" are owned and run by us, James and William. We are also proud of the qualified, enthusiastic and friendly team of staff who help us in both the companies.
