Planting and start
Evergreen shrubs are best planted in autumn or early spring. Make sure you have a spacious planting hole and a well-loosened, nutritious soil. Water adequately after planting so that the roots can establish themselves well.
Stand and soil
The right location is important for healthy growth.
- Most evergreen shrubs grow well in sun to semi-shade
- Protection from cold winds prevents leaf damage in winter
- Well-drained soil is essential to avoid root problems
Care during the year
- Water extra during dry periods, including in spring and summer
- Mulch around the base helps retain moisture and improves the soil
- A light fertiliser can be given in spring to support growth
Pruning and maintenance
Evergreen shrubs require limited maintenance.
- Prune lightly to maintain shape and compactness
- Remove dead or damaged branches when necessary
- Preferably do not prune during frost or bright sunshine
With the right care, evergreen shrubs provide a permanently green and well-kept garden all year round.
