Does your garden lack privacy?
Mature planting provides screening, attracts wildlife - and adds value to your property too!
Increased time spent at home by many of us in the last couple of years has also increased the need to improve our private space, including our gardens, whether for improved security and privacy or simply just to make it more attractive. However, the value of a well-kept garden can also be expressed in more absolute terms financially.
Studies have shown that an untidy garden can knock over £5000 off the asking price of a house. Two thirds of British homebuyers would be put off buying a house with an untidy garden and privacy is the main thing homebuyers look for in a garden.
At Wykeham Mature Plants you really can buy time, giving any garden or planting scheme maturity which would otherwise take years to achieve. The staff of this Yorkshire nursery are experts in providing instant screening for privacy and security, whether the job requires carefully selected trees, mature hedging, or plants clipped or trained specifically to address the issues on site, and their professionally executed design and planting services are available to both private and commercial clients. If you need help or inspiration, site visits are available so you can discuss your requirements with one of the experienced horticulturists to help you achieve guaranteed results with instant hardy plants, with expert guidance given not only in selecting the right plants, but also in how to look after them on an ongoing basis.
As well as a range of colourful Yorkshire-grown mature shrubs, which provide that wow factor to any garden, a particular specialty is a range of plants and trees selected or trained specifically to provide screening. The staff will guide you through available screening options, whether that s tall hedging, evergreen trees with clear trunks to provide screening above a wall or fence, or
pleached trees (trained horizontally on tiers or fanned out on a flat panel, above a tall clear stem, to give a twodimensional effect, rather like a narrow hedge on a stick to allow dense screening without taking up much space).
