Evergreen shrubs are the workhorses of a good landscape, and they're the first thing we reach for when someone wants their yard to look finished in January. Unlike deciduous shrubs and hedges that drop their leaves and leave bare sticks behind, evergreens hold their foliage straight through winter and into the next growing season. That's the whole botanical definition, and it's also the whole reason they're worth the money.

What that buys you is structure. Your privacy screen still screens in February. Your foundation planting still hides the crawlspace vents. Your borders still read as borders instead of a row of twigs. We've watched customers plant a hedge of deciduous shrubs, love it all summer, then call us in December wondering where their privacy went.

Evergreens also give you more variety in texture than most people expect. Some carry long needles and cones, like our junipers and arborvitae. Others are broadleaf, with wide glossy leaves that take pruning well, which is where boxwood and holly earn their reputation. A few bring berries into the mix and pull in birds through the cold months when there isn't much else out there for them.

Every plant on this page is grown and cared for on our North Florida farm, then shipped straight to your door. We're a grower, not a middleman, so the shrub that shows up is one our team has had hands on.

There are dozens upon dozens of types of evergreen shrubs, but some of the most popular ones are easy to distinguish. Yew is a type of needle-leaf evergreen that grows upright and makes for great hedges. Junipers also have needles but are drought-tolerant and come in a bluish-gray color.

Boxwoods and hollies are also evergreen shrubs but they have leaves instead of needles. Boxwoods grow well in moist soil while holly is easily distinguished by its lush, green foliage and red berries. There are countless other types of evergreen bushes, but these are some of the most popular. One of our favorite boxwood shrubs is the NewGen Freedom® Shrub!

FAQs About Buying Evergreen Shrubs

Many evergreen shrubs thrive in partial to full shade. Some of the best options from Perfect Plants include Camellias, Holly, Azaleas, and Liriope. These shade-tolerant plants provide year-round greenery, seasonal blooms, and beautiful texture for woodland gardens, foundation plantings, and shaded landscape beds.

The best time to plant evergreen shrubs is during spring or fall, when cooler temperatures allow roots to establish before the stress of summer heat or winter cold. Because our shrubs are container-grown, they can be planted throughout the year in most climates with proper watering and care.

Some of our most popular evergreen shrubs include Sky Pencil Holly, High Fragrance Camellia, Ruby Loropetalum, Firepower Nandina, George Taber Azalea, Sweet Viburnum, and Edward Goucher Abelia. These shrubs offer year-round color, privacy, seasonal flowers, or vibrant foliage, making them excellent choices for hedges, foundation plantings, and landscape accents.

Start by considering your USDA growing zone, available sunlight, mature plant size, and the purpose of your planting. Whether you're looking for a privacy hedge, colorful flowers, low-maintenance foundation plants, or wildlife-friendly shrubs, Perfect Plants offers evergreen varieties to suit nearly every landscape and gardening style.

Every evergreen shrub is carefully grown and hand-packed at our Florida nursery before shipping. Plants are watered before leaving the nursery, secured inside the shipping box to minimize movement during transit, and shipped with their root systems intact. Your shrubs arrive healthy, protected, and ready to plant in your landscape.
