Autumn tips

Planting & Design Tips

Thinking ahead about what goes where, and when to plant it, makes a real difference to how a garden performs.

Plant trees, shrubs and hedging now

Autumn planting lets roots establish in still-warm, moist soil over winter, so the plant is ready to grow strongly the following spring.

Plant spring bulbs

Daffodils, tulips and crocus all need planting in autumn to flower the following spring — leaving it too late reduces flowering the first year.

Take the chance to move plants that aren't thriving

A plant that's struggling in the wrong spot transplants far more successfully in cool, moist autumn conditions than during the stress of summer heat.

Collect and save seed from favourite plants

Many hardy annuals and perennials set seed in autumn that can be collected, dried and stored to grow again next year at no extra cost.

Good to know

Planting & Design — your questions

Do you supply the plants?

Yes — we can source and supply everything, or work with plants you have already bought. You choose what suits you.

Will the planting suit my soil and light?

That is the heart of what we do. We assess soil, aspect and light so the right plants go in the right places.

Can you plant just a few pots and borders?

Of course — from a single border or patio pots to a full garden scheme, we work to whatever scale you need.

What does 'right plant, right place' actually mean?

It's a basic gardening principle: choosing plants that naturally suit the light, soil and moisture a spot already has, rather than fighting those conditions. Get that right and a planting scheme needs far less maintenance and looks better for longer.

I don't know much about plants — can you still help?

That's exactly what we're here for. Most clients come to us with an idea of the look they want rather than a plant list, and we work out the detail — what will actually thrive in your soil, light and space.
