Architectural Plants
Architectural plants are defined by their distinctive shapes, a strong structure and can add a dramatic look to any garden. They are usually used to create a focal point in the garden with their colours, textures and different sizes. They can look fantastic in your borders or can be used in containers on the patio. Our web shop displays a few of the more popular varieties we sell. To see our full range, please visit your local branch of Thompson's. These plants are also covered under our 3 year hardy plant guarantee, so you can buy from us with confidence.
