"Trees and shrubs are the backbone of any garden, providing year-round structure, colour, and interest. Whether you're after elegant statement trees, hardy evergreens, or flowering shrubs that burst into life with seasonal colour, there's something to suit every space. They’re low maintenance, long-lasting, and brilliant for wildlife too - what’s not to love?"

Ornamental trees and garden shrubs are reliable, hardy additions to any outdoor space which will continue to provide pleasure throughout the year. Often overlooked when considering landscape design, they are increasing in popularity due to the recent cold winters; strong enough to withstand temperatures that would otherwise ruin more delicate plants, they provide structure and create harmony throughout your garden. Well positioned rose bushes or garden shrubs can provide a focal point, hide an eyesore or allow you to add an unexpected splash of colour. Do not be put off in thinking these plants are not suited for smaller gardens; careful selective breeding has allowed for varieties that complement the most difficult of spaces.
Most importantly, garden trees and shrubs are amongst the most low-maintenance, trouble free and easy options when planning your garden. At the most they require all but a few minutes pruning once a year to ensure their size and shape is kept as you desire. Furthermore, it is almost impossible to kill established garden trees or rose bushes by cutting back too hard or far; in fact, the plant is likely to benefit from a thorough visit from the pruning shears.
Buying your trees online here offers distinct advantages. We offer both the traditional "bare root" varieties and the commercial grade "starter plants", neither of which are easily obtainable from your local garden centre and both granting excellent value for money. Our plants are lifted and delivered in the winter when they lie dormant; for guaranteed results we suggest you plant during this time to allow your new garden shrubs the best possible start in the coming spring.
