Evergreen Shrubs

We recommend robust species like Prunus laurocerasus (Cherry Laurel) or Elaeagnus ebbingei. Both are fast-growing, provide dense, year-round foliage, and require minimal specialist care, making them cost-effective for wholesale orders on large sites.

Yes, our dedicated wholesale service provides flexible delivery schedules for containerised and rootballed stock across the South East and nationwide. Please contact our team with your postcode and quantity requirements for a precise freight quotation.

Container-grown evergreen shrubs can be planted all year round, although we recommend avoiding periods of severe frost or drought. Planting in autumn or spring allows the root system the best chance to establish before extreme weather conditions.

For reliable winter interest, consider Viburnum tinus for its white flowers, Skimmia japonica for its bright red berries, or Photinia 'Red Robin' for vibrant red new growth and year-round structure.

For an instant, dense evergreen hedge, we typically recommend planting two to three smaller to medium-sized shrubs (e.g., 3L or 5L pots) per linear metre. For larger specimen plants, one plant per metre is often sufficient for immediate impact.

The majority of our premium quality evergreen shrubs are grown on site at our extensive nursery. For certain specialist or very large specimen plants, we ethically source from trusted, long-term European partners to ensure the widest selection and best possible quality for our trade customers.
