The Best Mediterranean Plants for UK Gardens
At YouGarden, we’ve curated a selection of the most hardy, easy-care Mediterranean plants that will thrive in British conditions. Whether you have a sprawling garden or a compact urban patio, these plants will deliver spectacular results with minimal fuss.
Why Choose Mediterranean Plants?
Once established, many Mediterranean plants require very little watering, making them ideal for busy gardeners. Plus, many varieties grow brilliantly in containers, making them a great choice for small spaces.
Low-maintenance and hardy, these plants thrive in poor soils and require minimal upkeep. From scented foliage to long-flowering shrubs, Mediterranean plants keep your garden looking and smelling incredible all year.
How to Grow Mediterranean Plants in the UK
Choose a sunny spot, as most Mediterranean plants thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. If you have heavy clay soil, consider adding grit or planting in containers with free-draining compost.
Some species, like bougainvillea or citrus trees, benefit from being moved to a sheltered spot or greenhouse in winter. Light pruning helps maintain a tidy, compact form and encourages fresh growth.
