How tall are the plants in my ready-to-plant garden kit?
We choose our plants carefully, so that we can offer you plants of excellent quality, of a good size and at an affordable price. The trees and shrubs in your garden will vary in size depending on the season and the variety. Your shrubs, and even some hydrangeas paniculata, can be up to 1.5 metres tall, while the stocked trees in the Nature Libre garden can be up to 2 metres tall. Other shrubs will have a more measured height. For perennials and grasses, heights vary greatly from one variety to another and especially from one season to another.

If the soil in your garden has recently been turned over with a rototiller, plan to flatten the ground by rolling it with a lawn roller, for example. It is important that the soil is flat and compacted so that you can easily position the cardboard planting plan.
