Getting formal!
Low hedging plants are perfect for giving your garden a neat, tidy and formal look. Used to create garden borders around paths, driveways, lawns or planted next to structures such as houses, sheds or retaining walls, there are almost unlimited uses for this popular landscaping element in any garden. The best way to maintain these types of plants is to occasionally prune them into a hedge shape encouraging the plants to create a dense structure and grow together seamlessly.
The living fence
When you need a ‘wall of green,’ these are the plants that have you covered. Whether it is shade, privacy or an ugly fence you need hidden from sight, a high screen hedge is the perfect option to make your garden a private, green oasis. These tree-like plants develop a sturdy trunk and once established, are generally not too fussy about their growing conditions meaning that they are generally quite drought resistant.
We've got everything covered
Groundcovers are the quickest and most cost-effective solution to cover large, bland areas of your garden with colour. These plants are generally quite low growing and have a tendency to spread, meaning that they will grow to cover a large section of garden. This also comes with the added benefit of erosion control due to the mat of stems, leaves and roots covering the ground which also helps to keep down weeds! Being very hardy plants, they can be planted in poor soils, they don’t require much maintenance and are often relatively drought resistant – very easy to grow!
These plants look BOOM
Feature plants are the way you can give your garden a distinctive look by putting them in places where they can stand out and create an eye-catching display. These plants boast bright, contrasting colours and attention-grabbing looks. You can get creative with the way you prune these plants to develop and show off your gardening skill and make your garden your own special place you can enjoy.
