Choosing the Right Shrubs

The best shrubs depend on your soil, how much sun the spot gets and what you want from them. We help you pick shrubs that will thrive where they are planted, whether that is year-round greenery, seasonal colour or a natural screen for privacy. The right choice means less work later.

Planting Them to Last

How a shrub is planted decides how well it grows. We dig the right size hole, improve the soil where needed and plant at the correct depth so the roots settle in. Well-planted shrubs get off to a strong start and need far less nursing to get going.

Shaping the Garden

Shrubs give a garden structure and shape through the year. We can use them to fill bare borders, soften hard edges, screen an unwanted view or add height and colour. Planted with a plan in mind, they lift the whole garden and give it a settled, cared-for look.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to plant shrubs in Alton?

Autumn and spring are the best times to plant shrubs in Alton, when the soil is moist and warm enough for roots to settle before summer or winter. Container-grown shrubs can go in almost any time with enough watering. We can advise on the right timing for the shrubs you want.

What shrubs grow well in Alton gardens?

Plenty of shrubs do well in Alton gardens, from evergreens for year-round cover to flowering shrubs for seasonal colour. The best choice depends on your soil and how sunny the spot is. We look at your garden and suggest shrubs that will thrive there with little fuss.

Can shrubs give me privacy in my Alton garden?

Yes. The right shrubs make an excellent natural screen for privacy in an Alton garden, softer and greener than a fence. We can plant evergreen shrubs to block an unwanted view or shield a seating area. Tell us what you want to screen and we will suggest suitable plants.
