16 varieties of architectural plants grown locally at our Staffordshire nurseries. Bold foliage and structural form for year-round garden interest.
Architectural plants bring structure, drama and year-round interest to any garden. Our collection of grasses, bamboo and statement plants includes bold Cordyline palms, colourful Phormium, elegant Fargesia bamboo, dramatic Yucca and the exotic Dracaena Dragon Tree.
These are the plants that give your garden its bones -- the structural anchors that look good in every season, whether frosted in winter or basking in summer sun. Many are evergreen, providing constant form when other plants have died back.
All of our architectural plants are grown at our nurseries in Eccleshall and Stone, ensuring they are hardened off and ready to perform in Staffordshire gardens from day one.
Cabbage Palm
Striking spiky foliage in greens, reds, purples and lime. Hardy evergreen architectural plants that make a bold statement in borders and containers alike.
New Zealand Flax
Bold, strap-shaped leaves in vibrant colours. Tough, architectural evergreens that provide structure and drama throughout the year.
Yucca
Dramatic sword-shaped foliage for a structural focal point. Drought tolerant once established and surprisingly hardy in Staffordshire gardens.
Dragon Tree
The iconic Dragon Tree brings exotic, sculptural form to sheltered gardens and conservatories. A real talking point.
Bamboo
Elegant clump-forming bamboo that stays where you plant it. Perfect for screening, adding movement and creating a tranquil, rustling backdrop.
Cordyline and Phormium make stunning centrepieces in large pots by doorways, on patios or flanking entrance paths.
Fargesia bamboo creates a beautiful, evergreen natural screen without the invasive spreading of running bamboo species.
A single Yucca or Dracaena can create a dramatic focal point in gravel gardens, Mediterranean-style planting or modern designs.
