What plants are available in Spain?
Twenty years ago good garden centres were few and far between and often the available choice was limited, special plants being sold out fast. Today new garden centres have sprung up all along the coast to service the rapid growth in the ownership of coastline properties by both foreign and Spanish families. In our book Your Garden in Spain –From planning to planting and maintenance published in 2007 (see our books pages) we list and describe some four hundred of the most popular easily obtained plants with guidance on colours, sizes, perfumed or not, and where and how best grown etc… Most are illustrated with photographs. Frost and drought resistances are given for all as there can be summer water shortages and some are not for the frosty inland valleys.
