Who we are

GrowWhere is a community project created to answer a simple question:

What actually grows well in different parts of Scotland?

Gardening advice online often comes from much warmer climates, but Scottish growing conditions vary hugely — from coastal winds to Highland frost pockets.

What thrives in one garden can completely fail just a few miles away.

GrowWhere collects real experiences from gardeners across Scotland to build a map of what actually grows where.

By sharing successes, failures, and the varieties people are growing, we can start to build a clearer picture of what works in different Scottish conditions.

This project is driven by the gardening community itself.

Every result shared helps other gardeners make better decisions about what to grow in their own part of Scotland.

GrowWhere is growing thanks to gardeners across Scotland sharing what works in their own gardens.
