McLaren's said: "As a company who have grown with Four Oaks, we have been avid visitors to Four Oaks trade show for over 40 years, we have decided that this is the year we want to take the next step and exhibit for the very first time. We have recently completed some intensive production development, including the build of a one-acre greenhouse in 2019. As we are proudly Scotland’s largest production nursery in terms of variety, we believe it is time to showcase what we can offer on a national scale. 

"We continue to invest in the quality of our plants, following our growing tradition of exposing them to the hardy Scottish climate. This brings out the best in the plant’s resilience, even if it takes slightly longer. For over half a century we have focussed on refining how we grow our stock, using the Scottish landscape to our benefit. We take time in our production, growing slowly and deliberately. As a company we have grown in harmony with our stock, now we have reached the level where we are ready to exhibit as a result of this growth at Four Oaks. Exhibiting this year gives us a great opportunity to build relationships with nurseries all over the UK."
