Description

Conifers are a great ultra-low maintenance solution for smaller gardens, rockeries or gravel beds and these dwarf varieties mean that anyone can grow them, no matter the size of garden.

This complementary mix of varieties provides year-round colour. Easy to grow, you can even plant up in pots as evergreen features to bring the patio to life at any time of year, or place in the ground to fill up those pesky gaps.

All are dwarf varieties, so only require infrequent trimming to shape every few years. Best of all, they are very hardy so you do not need to worry about them in the winter – just plant and grow!

Supplied as a set of three established conifer shrubs in 9cm pots, ready to plant out all year round. Including one each of the following:

  • Thuya occidentalis ‘Tiny Tim’ – The greyish green foliage of this dwarf conifer forms into a globe-like shape. Grows up to H100cm x W100cm
  • Pinus mugo ‘Pumilio’ – Low and bushy, this evergreen conifer boasts a display of dark green needles, each up to 4cm long. A slow grower, remaining compact and neat for several years. Grows up to H350cm x W500cm
  • Platycladus orientalis ‘Aurea Nana’ – Evergreen conifer and a proud holder of the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Grows slowly into a shrub, with dense foliage in yellowy green, with bright tips. Grows up to H100cm x W60cm

Please note that the varieties supplied may differ depending on availability

Top Tips

Newly planted conifers need regular watering to prevent browning - once established they are drought proof.
Remove weeds as soon as they appear and mulch well to reduce water loss.

Care Information

Planting Advice for Your Collection:

  • Water your potted plant well.
  • Dig a hole a little deeper and 3 x wider than the nursery pot.
  • Add a soil conditioner such as well-rotted manure to the earth removed from the hole if necessary.
  • Remove the plant from its pot and tease out a few of the roots.
  • Sprinkle on some Root grow to help establish a sound root system.
  • Place your plant in the hole at the same level at the pot.
  • Refill the hole with the earth removed (backfilling).
  • Firm in the soil with your heel, avoiding the root ball.
  • Water well and mulch around the base of the plant with a collar, compost, gravel, bark etc.

Pruning:

  • No pruning is required although you can clip to retain height from spring to late summer, just avoid cutting into old wood.
  • If your plant gets too tall for where you have planted it, clip the top to keep it at the required height.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
