Autumn Garden Plants Available at Woolpit Nurseries
Autumn is a great time to plant in Suffolk. Cooler temperatures, seasonal rainfall and soil that still holds some warmth give many trees, shrubs and hardy perennials a chance to establish roots before spring.
If you’re planning new borders, replacing tired shrubs or adding colour to your pots, visit us to see what’s looking good at the nursery.
Ornamental & Fruit Trees
Add height, blossom, autumn colour or home-grown fruit to your garden. Autumn is an excellent time to plant many trees while the soil is still workable.
Hardy Perennial Plants
Choose from more than 360 varieties of perennial plants for long-lasting colour, attractive foliage and flowers that return year after year. There are plenty of choices for sunny borders, shady corners and pollinator-friendly gardens.
Garden Shrubs
With around 180 varieties of garden shrubs, you’ll find plants for colourful borders, evergreen screening, flowering hedges and year-round interest. Our popular 2-litre and 5-litre shrubs offer excellent value.
Spring Flowering Bulbs
Plant daffodils, crocuses, alliums and other spring-flowering bulbs in autumn for welcome colour next year. Choose varieties that flower at different times to extend your display.
Hedging Plants
Create privacy, shelter and attractive garden boundaries with evergreen or deciduous hedging. Autumn is a good time to establish many hardy hedging plants before spring growth begins.
Topiary Plants & Trees
Add structure to your garden with carefully shaped evergreens, topiary balls, standards and architectural plants. Ideal for entrances, patios and borders needing year-round interest.
Italian Plants & Olive Trees
Bring Mediterranean character to your garden with olive trees, Italian-grown specimens and striking architectural plants. We can advise on positioning and winter protection in Suffolk’s climate.
Garden Pots & Containers
Choose from terracotta pots, frost-resistant containers and large statement planters for patios, doorways and garden displays. Ask our team about suitable compost and planting combinations.
Seasonal Bedding Plants
Refresh tired summer displays with autumn and winter bedding plants. Pansies, violas and other seasonal favourites provide colour for pots, window boxes, borders and hanging baskets.
Need Help Choosing the Right Plants for Your Garden?
Not sure what will grow in a shady border? Looking for shrubs that can cope with a dry Suffolk summer? Want screening without planting a large tree?
Catherine, Andrew and the Woolpit Nurseries team are happy to help.
Because we grow so many of our plants ourselves, we can give practical advice on soil conditions, plant sizes, watering, positioning and ongoing care.
Bring along a photograph of your garden or tell us what you’d like to achieve. We’ll help you choose plants suited to the space.
