Spring
What You’ll Find This Spring
Spring is all about building momentum in your garden. At Hillside Farm, you’ll find a carefully-selected range of plants that work for both instant impact and longer-term results.
Spring bulbs in bloom – including tulips, daffodils, crocus, and hyacinths for immediate colour
Bedding plants and seasonal favourites – ideal for pots, borders, and baskets
Perennials for lasting structure – reliable plants that return year after year
Flowering shrubs – perfect for adding height and early-season interest
Pollinator-friendly plants – supporting bees and wildlife as the season begins
If you’re planning ahead, as most gardeners are, spring is also a great time to think about structure and planting that carries throughout the rest of the year. This includes summer plants for hot weather in UK gardens, and even early choices of plants for winter colour in UK gardens too.

We Grow Sustainably and Naturall
How plants are grown matters just as much as how they look. At Hillside Farm, sustainability is part of everyday practice. Review the table below to see how we’re doing our bit.
| Problem | Our solution |
|---|---|
| Peat extraction harms ecosystems and releases significant carbon emissions when used in compost | Our compost is peat-free to reduce environmental impact |
| Plants grown overseas build ‘plant miles’ when transported in | Low plant miles with at least 95% of our stock being UK-grown |
| Chemical use can weaken plants and harm the environment | No chemical growing methods, we focus on strong, naturally resilient plants |
| Excessive water waste from inefficient irrigation | Water-conscious approach using targeted hand-watering |
| High energy use increases environmental impact in colder months | Renewable energy to heat the nursery during the winter |
It’s a more thoughtful way of growing which is better for your garden and the environment.
