Our History
RD Plants is a passion project driven by our love for exceptional plants. We, the late Rodney Davey and Lynda Windsor, dedicated our lives to cultivating unique and beautiful hellebores, with a particular focus on creating new and improved varieties.
Our journey began with a shared frustration. We encountered too many hellebores that were weedy, small, and poorly grown. These plants often fell short of expectations when they flowered, failing to live up to their advertised potential. We believed we could do better.
For over 15 years, our nursery has been a haven for those seeking exceptional hellebores. Rodney, with his meticulous hand, carefully cultivates each plant, ensuring they reach their full potential. Lynda's keen eye for detail ensures that only the most stunning varieties find their way to our customers.
Our dedication has resulted in the creation of several unique hellebores, including the highly sought-after 'Anna's Red'. This variety exemplifies our commitment to developing hellebores that are not only beautiful but also true to form.
We are not simply plant sellers; we are passionate breeders and enthusiasts. We invite you to explore our collection and discover the magic of truly exceptional hellebores.
We are deeply saddened to share that Rodney Davey passed away in 2023. His meticulous care and dedication to creating exceptional hellebores is a legacy that lives on in our established varieties. While Lynda no longer actively breeds new hellebores, her passion for these incredible plants continues. She focuses on smaller, local projects, sharing her knowledge and expertise with fellow gardening enthusiasts in our community. RD Plants remains a testament to Rodney's love of cultivation and Lynda's unwavering commitment to the beauty of hellebores.
