Rosara at Nicholsons
Over the past few months, the Nicholsons Green Team has been working hard to make some changes to our North Aston site.
We are delighted to formally introduce Rosara at Nicholsons, a destination for visitors to explore their love of nature through thoughtful events, a meaningful retail experience and generous hospitality.

The Plant Centre
Curated for sustainability, biodiversity and climate resilience, the Rosara plant selection is responsibly sourced and certified Plant Healthy.
We specialise in ornamental trees, screening and hedging plants and have a curated selection of herbaceous plants, bulbs and seeds, complemented by an ‘artisan’ retail experience which supports local makers close to our hearts.
Browse our carefully curated shop and peruse a collection of our favourites in The Book Room.

Rosara at Nicholsons & The Chipping Norton Flower Farm
We are proud to be collaborating with The Chipping Norton Flower Farm, known locally as Chippy Flower Farm. From Tuesday 8th April, freshly harvested bouquets of locally grown flowers, chosen for their scent, vase life and grace, will be available to purchase from Rosara at Nicholsons.
The Chipping Norton Flower Farm uses no-dig regenerative techniques to protect the soil and unlike 90% of the cut flowers sold in the UK which are grown abroad, their stems have zero air miles and are harvested just 6 miles from North Aston.

Meaningful experiences
Visitors are invited to connect with climate and nature through meaningful experiences, including seasonal suppers, fairs, talks and workshops covering horticulture, forestry, ecology and sustainability.
In April, we look forward to hosting a Horticultural Pop-Up, a Living Spring Wreath Workshop, a botanical Perfume Workshop and more.
