Rex Dibley started the Nursery in 1976 as a hobby and named it after the local village 'Efenechtyd'. For some reason this name gave people some difficulty and was eventually changed to the slightly more pronounceable 'Dibleys'. His son Gareth joined him in the business in 1984 after graduating from Reading University with a degree in Horticulture. Soon after, Rex retired from teaching to devote more time to the business. Gareth's sister Lynne has also joined the business to make it a truly family concern.

Accolades held by the nursery include winning Gold Medals for every single Chelsea Flower Show they have attended (18 so far), winning a Large Gold Medal in every National and International Garden Festival held in Britain, and Gold and Large Gold Medals at every major Flower Show in the UK including BBC Gardeners World Live (in Birmingham), Hampton Court Flower Show, Shrewsbury Flower Show and Malvern Spring Shows. Apart from gold medals, Dibleys have also received the Royal Horticultural Sociey's Anthony Huxley Medal for the best display of tender plants in any RHS show throughout a whole year.
