View full detailsBuild a garden that is easier to look after
Start with plants suited to the light, soil and space you have. Evergreen Euonymus, Viburnum and Aucuba provide structure, while Bergenia, hardy geraniums and selected ground cover can fill gaps. Sedums and Festuca offer options for sunnier, free-draining spots; sweet box and suitable sedges suit different positions. Easy-care does not mean no care: new plants need watering, spreading plants may need edging and some shrubs benefit from an occasional trim. Choose fewer varieties and repeat them for a simple planting plan.
A plant in the right soil and light usually needs less intervention than one struggling in the wrong position.
Allow for establishment watering, seasonal tidying and any pruning recommended for the plant.
Use suitable ground cover and mulch around plants, keeping mulch clear of stems and crowns.
