Bob traveled from the Limehouse Basin to Liverpool by canal in 1972 taking pictures all the way. We are delighted to be able to exhibit some of them here. They show a canal system struggling to survive, part of Britain's industrial heritage now lost forever. But  luckily the canals survived!

This exhibition continues in Springfield Park Cafe. A lovely walk or cycle up the river Lea.

But of course we are still that important Garden Centre with most of what you need for the coming Spring!

We  have a new delivery of seeds to get the year off to a cheerful start.

We are nestled between the Hertford Union Canal and Victoria Park.

It provides a welcome relief from the hustle & bustle of inner city life. Come in and enjoy this Oasis.

We offer a wide range of interesting & unusual plants, changing from season to season, so we do not have a regular catalogue.We have large structural plants including a variety of exotics, perennials, shrubs, herbs & annuals. We also stock  a wide range of garden sundries, tools & pots. We have beautifully packedged seeds that make the perfect gift.

Whether strolling down the canal, in a barge or driving past in a car, why not stop & enjoy a cup of coffee or tea, even an ice cream in idyllic surroundings - you may even be tempted to buy a plant!

Growing Concerns is one of the few small, locally run garden centres in London's East End. We are committed to our customers -  the staff here are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.
