We have been growing our plants with great passion since 1976. We are therefore proud that the third generation is now at the helm of our family business. All plants and trees we supply come either directly from our own nursery or from fellow nurseries that work in partnership with Heijnen. Through our close cooperation with various skilled growers, plant importers and other professionals, we guarantee products that are as fresh and high quality as possible. What this means for you is healthy and beautiful plants and trees straight from the nursery at competitive prices.

Height at time of delivery (cm)
Height at time of delivery (cm)

'Height without root ball' refers to the measurement of a plant or tree where the height is measured without taking into account the underlying root ball of roots and soil normally present when the plant is moved. When measuring height without root ball, only the visible part of the plant above ground, such as the trunk/stem, branches and leaves, is taken into account, while the root ball that is normally below ground is excluded from the measurement.

Height at time of delivery (cm)
Mature height (cm)
Mature height (cm)

The mature height of a plant is the height the plant reaches when it is mature. It is also called the maximum height. This height is given in centimetres and refers to the height of the visible part of the plant above the ground. In other words, the trunk/stem, branches and leaves. The root ball that is (normally) below the ground is excluded from this measurement. Location and soil type also affect mature plant height.

Genus
Genus

The genus is a taxonomic classification that includes several closely related species. Genus is a rank that is above the 'species' rank. The spelling of the genus name always includes one scientific name beginning with a capital letter. A genus cannot be ordered as a product; a species or variety can be ordered.

Positioning
Positioning

By positioning, we mean the number of hours of sunlight at the spot where the plants are to be placed. There are three categories for this, namely:

  • Sun - more than 4 hours of sun per day
  • Partial shade - up to 4 hours of sun per day
  • Shade - less than 2 hours of sun per day

The type of soil is of minor importance in most cases, unless otherwise stated for the product.

Growth habit
Growth habit

Growth habit is the way in which the plant grows and what general shape the plant has. Roughly speaking, we can divide our plants into the following categories:

  • Bushy spreading growth habit - in this growth habit, the plant grows bushy in both height and width.
  • Climbing growth habit - as the name suggests, a climbing plant. Suitable for positioning against a wall, fence or pergola.
  • Creeping wide-spreading growth habit - relatively low-growing and ground-covering plants that spread considerably, especially in width.
  • Upright growth habit - these plants grow mostly straight up and with virtually no overhang.
  • Upright to bushy growth habit - these plants tend to grow straight up and, especially as they grow taller, may overhang slightly.
  • Clump-forming and upright growth habit - these plants form a single clump from which stems, leaves and flowers grow. The taller the plant, the more the leaves and stems may overhang.
  • Clump-forming growth habit - these plants form a single clump and remain somewhat more compact in shape
  • Sod-forming growth habit - these plants form a dense carpet. Stems and leaves grow very closely together. You could compare this to the growth habit of a lawn.

Application

Application

By 'application' we mean how the planting can be used in the garden. In this, we distinguish between the possible applications below:

Border: also called a bed, this is a strip of ground (part of the garden) intended for planting. Due to the construction of paths, terraces and lawn, a garden often consists of multiple borders:

  • Group planting: plants that are at their best when placed together in small or large groups and can be easily combined with other garden plants if desired.
  • Edge planting: mostly low-growing plants that are suitable for use at the edge of borders and so provide a nice progression from low to tall plants.
  • Underplanting: mostly shade-loving plants that can be planted under large shrubs and trees.

Solitary: a plant (usually a larger shrub) that does best when planted alone and not with several of the same variety together. A solitary plant is a real eye-catcher and also provides 'body' to the garden. You place a solitary plant in a border in combination with (relatively) low-growing plants, for example.

Pot: a plant that grows well in a pot.

Planter: plants that are perfect for use in planters.

Hedge: plants that grow particularly tall and branch nicely through pruning. This makes them ideal for use as a natural screen (hedge). We offer hedge plants for both low and tall hedges.

Pergola: plants that are ideal for planting and growing against a pergola.

Fence: plants that can be grown against a fence or placed in front of a fence.

Wall: plants that can be grown against a wall or placed in front of a wall.

Trellis: plants that can be grown in a trellis to create more greenery and privacy in the garden.

Slope: plants that are ideal for planting on a slope.

Flower colour
Flower colour

The flower colour(s) of the plant. 

Flowering month
Flowering month

The month(s) in which the plant flowers under normal (weather) conditions. 

Leaf colour
Leaf colour

The leaf colour(s) of the plant. 

Winter hardiness
Winter hardiness

A winter hardiness zone, also known as a USDA zone, is a classification system used to categorise climatic conditions based on winter temperatures (susceptibility to frost). These zones range from 1a (coldest) to 13b (mildest). These winter hardiness zones can help you find the right plants and trees that are sufficiently hardy for your region.

The winter temperatures the plant or tree can withstand is noted with each product. See the overview of winter hardiness zones here:

USDA Hardness zones in °C

Evergreen plants
Evergreen plants

Also known as leaf-retaining plants. These are plants that retain their leaves regardless of the season and continue to provide colour in the garden, even in winter.

Fragrant plants
Fragrant plants

This refers to whether the plant gives off a certain scent. In most cases, the scent of a fragrant plant comes from the leaves and/or flowers.

    Characteristics of deep purple ornamental garden bushes

    Purple flowering bushes, also known as lavender-hued bushes or violet-coloured flowering bushes, are a stunning addition to any garden. These bushes typically grow in a rounded shape, spreading outwards to create a lush, full appearance. The width of these bushes can vary, but they often reach a spread of 1 to 2 metres, making them ideal for purple flowering borders. The development of purple flowering bushes begins in early spring when new shoots emerge. As the season progresses, these bushes grow rapidly, reaching their full size by late summer. The growth rate can be influenced by factors such as soil quality, sunlight, and regular watering. Purple flowering bushes usually bloom from late spring to early summer. The exact timing can depend on the climate, weather conditions, and the age of the plant. Warmer temperatures and well-drained soil can encourage earlier blooming. The blooms of these bushes come in various shades, including light purple, deep purple, and lavender-coloured. The specific hue can be affected by the type of bush, soil conditions, and the amount of sunlight received. While not all purple flowering bushes are known for their scent, some varieties do offer a pleasant fragrance. This can be influenced by the type of bush and its growing conditions. When fully grown, purple flowering bushes can reach heights of 1 to 3 metres. This makes them perfect for creating layers in a garden with purple colour accents. Proper care and placement can enhance their visual impact, making them a favourite choice for those looking to buy purple flowering bushes.

    Purple flowering bushes, also known as deep purple ornamental bushes or rich purple garden bushes, are a stunning addition to any garden. The leaves of these violet-flowering bushes can vary greatly. Some have broad, flat leaves, while others may have more intricate shapes. The colour ranges from light purple to deep purple, with some even showing lavender or lilac hues. The texture can be smooth or slightly hairy, which helps in retaining moisture. In winter, some purple flowering shrubs may lose their leaves, depending on the species and climate conditions.

    When it comes to winter hardiness, purple flowering bushes can be quite resilient. They can withstand cold temperatures, but prolonged frost and strong winds can be challenging. The soil condition also plays a role; well-drained soil helps in preventing frost damage. Some species are evergreen, keeping their leaves year-round, while others are deciduous, shedding leaves annually. This depends on the type of bush and the local climate.

    These bushes are generally heat and drought-tolerant, thanks to their origin and leaf structure. A waxy coating or fine hairs on the leaves can reduce water loss. A deep root system allows them to access moisture from deeper soil layers, making them suitable for gardens with purple colour accents.

Consider combining them with silver-toned foliage like Artemisia or Dusty Miller. The contrast between the rich purple garden bushes and the silvery leaves is striking.

This combination highlights the violet-flowering bushes, making them stand out in any garden with purple colour accents.

    Soil, water and site for vivid purple blooms

    Purple flowering bushes, like lavender-hued bushes and violet-coloured flowering bushes, thrive in full sun. They need at least six hours of sunlight daily to produce vibrant blooms. If planted in partial shade, the flowers may not be as vivid. Wind can affect these bushes, so planting them near a fence or wall can provide protection. The ideal soil for purple flowering bushes is well-drained and slightly sandy. Adding compost can improve soil quality, ensuring nutrients are available. Regular fertilisation supports healthy growth. These bushes prefer soil that retains some moisture but is not waterlogged. Wind and sun can dry out the soil, so mulching helps maintain moisture levels. Purple flowering bushes prefer a slightly acidic to neutral pH level. Testing the soil pH can help determine if adjustments are needed. Adding lime can raise pH, while sulphur can lower it. These factors ensure the bushes flourish, adding beautiful purple accents to gardens and borders.

    Planting and care guide for purple shrubs

    Purple flowering bushes can be planted throughout the year if they are delivered in pots, except during frost periods. For those with root balls, the best time is in spring or autumn. Factors like soil type, sunlight, and climate play a role in successful planting. When considering plant spacing, the type of purple flowering bushes, their size at planting, and growth rate are important. Typically, the number of plants per metre is specified on the plant's product page. Proper soil preparation is crucial for purple flowering bushes. Ensure the soil is well-drained and enriched with organic matter. Before planting, dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. After planting, water the bushes thoroughly to help them establish. Regular watering is essential, especially in the first few weeks. Deep purple ornamental bushes and rich purple garden bushes add vibrant colour to any garden. Whether creating purple flowering gardens or purple flowering borders, these bushes provide stunning accents.

With the right care, these bushes will thrive, offering a beautiful display of colour in any garden.

    Maintenance for Purple Flowering Bushes

    • Fertilising: Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring to promote healthy growth. Follow the package instructions for the correct amount and frequency.
    • Dividing: If the bushes become too large, divide them every few years in early spring. This helps rejuvenate the plant and encourages more blooms.
    • Winter Protection: In colder climates, protect the bushes with mulch to insulate the roots. This helps them survive harsh winters.
