As summer approaches, many keen gardeners will be eagerly donning their gloves as they prepare their carefully curated spaces for the new season, which always brings a burst of rich colour to the great outdoors.
However, taking on your garden after winter can be a daunting task as shoots begin to pop up all over the place, and if you have any spaces to fill in your pots or borders it's difficult to know which plant will work best with countless options to choose from. But horticulturalist and garden designer David Domoney has suggested a few fuss-free choices of shrub to get you started, The Express reports.
David said: "If you're looking to plug some gaps in your existing garden, or you're starting your garden from scratch, the following shrubs will put on plenty of vigorous growth to fill bare corners quickly with their lush leaves and beautiful flowers. These options are fast-growing and full of colour so there will be minimal waiting time between planting and enjoying their beautiful displays.
