Morden Hall Park Garden Centre sits between Morden, Mitcham and Wimbledon and is the National Trust’s first ever garden centre. The friendly, expert team can help you with your gardening questions, and advise on the right product for your needs.
The Garden Centre stands on the site of the historic estate’s kitchen garden, surrounded by acres of parkland, miles of walks, and wildlife. We're open 9am - 5pm, Monday to Saturday and 10am - 4pm on Sunday.
From plants and seeds, to fences, gravel, and especially tools, the Garden Centre at Morden Hall Park has everything you need to keep your garden looking its best. What's more, if you’ve got kids to entertain, animals to care for, or someone special to get a present for, you’ll find that too. Use the Jump to links to quickly access information.

Whilst the river might be inviting, it is not safe to enter, either for paddling or swimming. It is fast flowing, varies in depth and has unseen hazards that may result in serious injury or death. In addition, the water quality is unsuitable. Your cooperation in staying out of the water also helps us to protect the river wildlife and avoid damage to the banks.
What can you find in the Garden Centre?
Outdoor plants
Outdoor plants take pride of place, with lots of unusual varieties. Stock varies throughout the year, but includes roses, alpines, fruit trees and ornamental trees, shade-lovers, climbers and fruit and veg.
