Our Promise
Many of our plants are so special that they are protected by a plant patent. Only qualified growers are permitted to offer them for sale. We like to think that when you purchase a plant from Brookwood you will be confident that any help, advice or special knowledge needed to ensure its healthy growth will come with it.
New customers to Brookwood are discovering both the highest quality
and the lowest prices.
Tips
Here are some simple tips on
creating a beautiful landscape for your home:
Taller plants in the background, mid size plants in the middle of the bed, low growing plants closest to the lawn or sidewalk.
Specimen plants, like a Weeping Japanese Maple should be planted just one to an area, then accented with smaller plants around the specimen.
Accent plants should be planted in groups. Often odd numbers are easier to work with. 3, 5, 7 or 9 of the same plant arranged in a group or planted in an arc if the plant grows relatively low.
Do not alternate plants or colours. Plants of different colours also grow differently, some faster than others, some wider and flatter than others.
Raise the bed with good rich triple mix before you start. Your landscaping will really stand out in a raised bed.
Spend some money on specimen plants, they will make you happy every time you look at them.
