This diverse planting palette brings together deciduous trees, evergreen conifers, and ornamental shrubs to create a landscape rich in structure, color, and seasonal interest. Species such as Cornus mas ‘Lutea’, Corylus avellana ‘Fuscorubra’, and Fagus sylvatica cultivars introduce strong visual character through foliage color and form, ranging from golden-yellow blooms to deep purple and variegated leaves. Flowering shrubs like Hibiscus syriacus, Hydrangea macrophylla, and Cotinus coggygria—including the dramatic ‘Royal Purple’—add layers of texture and vibrant summer interest, while fruit-bearing plants such as Ficus carica enhance the landscape with both ornamental and productive value.
Evergreen species play a key role in ensuring year-round presence and spatial definition. Varieties of Ilex, from classic Ilex aquifolium to sculptural forms like Ilex crenata ‘Convexa’ and Ilex cornuta, provide dense foliage and strong architectural silhouettes. Conifers such as Cryptomeria japonica, Cupressocyparis leylandii cultivars, and an extensive selection of Juniperus—including ‘Blue Star’, ‘Old Gold’, and ‘Suecica Aurea’—contribute contrasting colors and growth habits, from fastigiate to ground-covering forms. Together, these plants form a balanced and resilient landscape composition, suitable for structured gardens as well as more naturalistic designs, offering visual depth throughout all seasons.
