Dwarf Shrubs for Sale – Buying & Growing Guide
Designing a garden in a small space is far harder than many people think. The main challenge is that many of the most popular plants you’ll find at a nursery will quickly outgrow a limited area. Thankfully, dwarf shrubs offer the perfect solution by giving you the chance to enjoy vibrant plant life that won’t be too large to manage.
3 Categories of Dwarf Shrubs
Dwarf flowering shrubs
If flowers are what you desire for your garden design, then you’ll be happy to know that many dwarf shrubs have incredible flowers. When planting and caring for these species, remember that well-timed pruning is one of the best ways to encourage copious blooms. If you are successful in caring for a dwarf flowering shrub, it will add vibrant pops of color to your landscape. Use these plants as focal points or as stark, contrasting accent pieces in your garden bed.
Dwarf evergreen shrubs
Among the most popular dwarf shrubs are evergreens. These shrubs come in many different cultivars and hybrid varieties. Each one comes with a unique set of foliage that will serve as a perfect backdrop in your garden. That foliage can also stand out in its own right for its color and texture. So if you need plants that can fill out your garden and provide visual interest even in the coldest months, dwarf evergreen shrubs are a fantastic option for you.
Dwarf boxwoods
Dwarf boxwood shrubs are noteworthy for their consistent form. These plants develop a rounded, nearly spherical form that is neat and pleasing to the eye. With just some light trimming, this plant will add an interesting geometric element to your garden. Plant dwarf boxwoods in containers and place them at different locations in your garden, or use them to line a pathway. The regularity of the dwarf boxwood’s form brings a degree of formality to a landscape design.
How to Plant Dwarf Shrubs
When you plant dwarf shrubs in the ground, dig a hole that is as deep as the root ball but significantly wider in all directions. Since these plants maintain a small size throughout their life, it is also suitable to plant them in containers. What is most important is that you follow the care requirements that are specific to the species you have. That approach will give your plants the greatest chance to thrive.
