Frequently asked questions

  • Do I need to use fertiliser on my plants?

    Most plants benefit from additional nutrients during the growing season, which spans from spring to autumn. You can use a liquid fertiliser or slow-release granules designed for your specific type of plant. Avoid feeding plants during the winter months when they are dormant to prevent salt build-up in the compost.
  • How often should I water my indoor plants?

    Most indoor plants require watering when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry to the touch. Overwatering is a common issue, so ensure the pot has drainage holes to allow excess water to escape. It is best to check the specific requirements for your plant variety, as succulents need significantly less water than ferns.
  • What are the best hedging plants for fast growth in the UK?

    Leylandii is the fastest-growing conifer, often achieving 75cm to 90cm of growth per year. Cherry Laurel is a popular evergreen alternative that grows quickly and provides dense screening. For a native option, Hawthorn grows rapidly and offers seasonal interest with flowers and berries.
  • What kind of plants are best suited for a tall flared planter's dimensions?

    Tall flared planters are excellent for a wide variety of plants, from compact shrubs and small trees to dramatic perennial arrangements or vibrant annual displays. Their generous top opening and depth accommodate a substantial root ball, making them ideal for plants that require ample space to thrive. Consider plants with a strong vertical presence to complement the planter's elegant form.
  • What plants are best suited for wooden trough planters?
