Shrubs for Year-Round Foliage

For those seeking constant greenery in their gardens, our selection of evergreen shrubs is sure to please. These resilient plants maintain their lush foliage throughout the year, providing a vibrant backdrop for your garden. Popular choices include the classic Boxwood, versatile Laurel, and the elegant Rhododendron. These shrubs not only offer visual appeal but also serve as natural privacy screens and windbreaks.

Autumn Shrubs

As autumn approaches, our garden centre comes alive with a kaleidoscope of colours. Our collection of autumn shrubs promises to paint your garden with vivid reds, oranges, and yellows. Japanese Maples, Burning Bushes, and Witch Hazels are some of our favourites. These shrubs burst into a fiery display of autumn hues, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere as the leaves gently fall to the ground.

Shrub Care Tips

Caring for your shrubs is crucial to ensure their health and beauty. Regular watering, mulching, and occasional feeding will help your shrubs thrive. Pruning is essential for maintaining their shape and encouraging new growth. For specific care instructions, feel free to consult our knowledgeable staff or refer to our comprehensive gardening guides.

Shrubs in a winter garden

Don't let the chill of winter leave your garden bare and lifeless. At Horticentre, we offer a variety of winter-friendly shrubs that can brighten up your outdoor space even on the frostiest days. Choose from fragrant winter-flowering Daphne, the resilient Winter Heather, or the ever-popular Holly. These shrubs will ensure that your garden remains a delightful sight, even amidst the winter's frost.

Planting and Pruning Shrubs

For optimal results, plant your shrubs in early spring or early autumn, when the soil is still warm. This allows them to establish strong roots before the harsher weather arrives. When it comes to pruning, the timing varies depending on the type of shrub. Generally, prune spring-flowering shrubs after they bloom, and summer-flowering ones in late winter or early spring.
