Greenshutters Garden Centre has been a nursery or garden centre for many years.
In the 1950's and 1960's, it grew cut flowers for a shop in Taunton and was a specialist in Freesias and Orchids.
It became a well-run retail nursery in the late 1980's and early 1990's growing and selling garden plants before falling on hard times in the late 1990's.
I purchased the struggling nursery in 1998.
My name is Roger Eavis and I am the current owner of Greenshutters Nurseries & Garden Centre.
I was brought up on my father's retail nursery and helped him with the watering, taking cuttings, sowing seeds and potting up from the age of 7. I studied at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne and went on to do a PhD in Plant and Crop Physiology at Wye College (University of London).
