Phillyrea angustifolia - 30/35cm Ball -7.5Litre

We have grown the ever popular Phillyrea balls for several years now as they are good evergreen plants that take really well in gardens as shrubby topiary.  They are covered in brilliantly scented flowers from the base of the leaves the spring and early summer, followed by black berries which only adds their garden appeal. Whilst we grow these as ball's they can be planted alongside one another and quickly grown in to a smart hedge! Leaf colour: Green. Type: Evergreen.

Magnolia laevifolia 'Fairy Honey Velvet' - 10Litre

This is a delightful semi-evergreen, upright magnolia with bold green leaves which is inundated with beautiful creamy goblet shaped very scented flowers in spring. - If only I had got around to taking a photo of these in flower this year! They were stunning!  The photo of the more mature plant is of a similar(but not exact) variety in our own garden, it has been in for about 4 years and has really taken to its shady location. Leaf colour: Green. Type: Evergreen. Aspect: Full sun or partial shade.  Soil Type: Sand, clay or loam. (particularly good in a clay garden) Pot Size: 10Litre

A fantastic evergreen shrub for a sunny spot, bringing colour, scent and a touch of the exotic to the garden. Leaf colour: Silver-green Type: Evergreen Aspect: Full sun Soil type: Sand, clay or loam Pot size: 7.5 litre

Osmanthus heterophyllus ‘Purpureus’ - 5Litre

This lovely Holly-Olive has rich dark green foliage, with striking red-black new growth that provides a wonderful contrast throughout the season. In early winter, fragrant creamy flowers appear amongst the leaves, providing a valuable source of nectar for pollinators at a time when little else is in flower. This period is often known as "The Hungry Gap", making late-flowering plants like this especially valuable. A tough and reliable evergreen shrub that brings year-round structure, colour and scent to the garden. Leaf colour: Green with red-black new growth Type: Evergreen Aspect: Full sun or partial shade Soil type: Sand, clay, chalk or loam Pot size: 5 litre

Santolina chamaecyparissus - 7.5Litre

A delightful evergreen shrub with a naturally rounded form, soft grey foliage and a wonderful aromatic scent. Its finely divided leaves provide year-round interest and contrast beautifully with neighbouring plants. In summer, bright yellow button-like flowers are held above the foliage, creating a cheerful display that is loved by pollinators. An excellent choice for sunny borders, gravel gardens and coastal planting. I have also seen these used very successfully in gardens where the flowers are clipped off before they open (which, to be honest, I find rather sad for the bugs!). Kept regularly trimmed, they form neat silver balls and make a wonderfully quirky alternative to box. Leaf colour: Grey Type: Evergreen Aspect: Full sun Soil type: Sand, chalk or loam Pot size: 7.5 litre
