Evergreens - all year interest
Evergreens keep their leaves in winter and provide year round interest and structure. There is a huge variety - some produce flowers, others rely on colourful foliage or interesting leaf shapes. Some evergreens make excellent feature plants, providing a year-round focal point in the garden. ; Top tip: Plant a range of evergreens with different attributes for year round structure. For example flowering at different times of the year to extend the season of interest, or contrasting foliage colours or forms.
