Evergreen bushes and shrubs

[Villanelle1]

Hi
Complete beginner here. I'm wanting to plant some colourful evergreen bushes in my garden any advice on what to get? Thanks

A bit like this

Most of those flowing shrubs will probably not be evergreen. You can get variety of colour though, have a look at:
Red robin,
Pieris
Variegated Holly
Ceanothus
Pittosporum
And then the dwarf Conifers.

The flowering shrubs like in your picture would be things like buddleia, weigela, forsythia.

Have a look at what does well in your neighbours gardens to see what works well in your soil.

California lilac is the one with blue flower clusters and dark green leaves that stay all year and hebes are nice get flowers and leaves stay all year too

Ceanothus (California lilac), forsythia and Weigela also flower once a year, in the spring.

The photo isn't of a real garden, it's a composite cut and paste jobby with enhanced colour! In the real world you wouldn't plant those types of shrubs so close together and they wouldn't all flower at the same time.

Have a google for the type of garden you like and look at what's doing well in your neighbours' gardens to see what might work in your own garden.

Viburnum is great, evergreen and lovely flowers in late winter. Also grows in poor soil, shade, sun.

Look at euyonymus. Mine is very bright all year round.

Euonymus I mean.

Arbutus, Mahonia, Choisya, some roses, Viburnum Eve Price, bamboo (often very vigorous so grow in a large container) various ornamental conifers (not leylandii). The choice is huge. Look online for ideas, plant soil and positonal requirements.

Garden centres likely to reopen Wednesday, after the initial crush go along see what takes your fancy and seek advice.

Thank you for your suggestions I will have a look
