Autumn is officially here, bringing a vibrant array of colours to brighten up your baskets, tubs, and borders. This is the perfect season for planting shrubs, trees, hedging, perennials, bulbs, and annual bedding plants.
We have a fantastic selection of annual plants, including pansies, violas, cyclamen, sugar rush wallflowers, cineraria (silver foliage), bellis perennis, small conifers, Calluna heathers, Erica heathers, ivies, sedums, small grasses, chrysanthemums, and many more. All our bedding plants are grown here at Capel Cottage!
Now is the ideal time to plant shrubs, allowing them to establish strong roots over winter and be ready to thrive come spring. We have an excellent selection of evergreen and deciduous shrubs, including camellias, rhododendrons, azaleas, pieris, hebes, nandina, skimmias, euonymus, photinias, viburnums, conifers, eleagnus, pyracantha, and escallonias.
The deciduous shrubs are especially striking at this time of year! Viburnum opulus with its berries, cotinus (smoke bush) with its stunning foliage and flowers, and hydrangeas with their changing flower colours are all looking spectacular.
Now is also the time to plant hardy perennials while the soil still holds some warmth. Our selection of autumn flowering perennials includes sedums, rudbeckias, Japanese anemones, salvias, solidago, heleniums, penstemons, verbenas, geraniums, phlox, and many more.
Our bare root hedging will be available very soon. We also have a variety of potted hedging, such as laurels (rotundifolia), prunus lusitanica, fagus sylvatica, and privet.
Our crab apple trees (Malus) are in full glory, with clusters of mini crab apples and autumnal foliage. The mountain ash trees (Sorbus) are equally beautiful, with vibrant berries and colourful leaves.
Pop by Capel Cottage and let us help you make the most of autumn planting! 🍁
