🍂 Autumn: Nature’s Time for Planting 🍂
As the days grow cooler and the soil remains warm, autumn is one of the very best times to plant in the garden. Nature is preparing for the seasons ahead, making it the perfect opportunity to establish plants before spring arrives.
🌷 Spring-Flowering Bulbs Plant daffodils, tulips, crocus and alliums now for a spectacular display of colour next year. Autumn planting gives bulbs time to develop strong roots before winter.
🌿 Herbaceous Perennials From asters and echinacea to hardy geraniums and heleniums, autumn is ideal for planting herbaceous favourites. The moist soil and cooler temperatures help plants settle in with less stress.
🌳 Trees Whether you're planting a statement specimen, a fruit tree or a native variety for wildlife, autumn provides excellent conditions for root establishment. By spring, your tree will be ready to put on fresh growth.
🌱 Shrubs Evergreen and deciduous shrubs both benefit from autumn planting. Hydrangeas, viburnums, choisya, skimmia and many more can focus their energy on developing roots before the growing season begins.
💚 Planting now means stronger roots, healthier plants and a head start for next year. Visit us and discover everything you need to create a garden full of colour, structure and interest for seasons to come.
