UK - Key plants for a #ClimateChange garden
BBC Gardeners' World Magazine
Published: Thursday, 24 November 2022 at 11:30 am
Take a look at our pick of key plants to grow in a changing climate.
"With temperatures and levels of pollution on the rise, plants can help gardens and gardeners thrive in changing times.
"This might seem like a daunting prospect, but the good news for gardeners is that there are steps we can take at a local level to help ease the effects of these big issues.
"While we can use drought-tolerant plants to cope in raised temperatures, the long-term solution lies in reducing the heat. Some plants have been proven to actively improve the #microclimate of a garden and surrounding buildings. For example, plants like #jasmine, #EnglishIvy and #viburnum are able to cool a building by between 7-14ºC. Plants can also trap pollution by absorbing particulate matter. #Conifers have been found to be especially good at this due to their smaller leaf size and shape.
"On top of this, the more ecologically resilient we can make our gardens with increased planting, the better they will serve us as places to relax, reduce stress and improve our mental well-being."

How #ClimateChange Is Reshaping Your Garden (And What You Can Do)
by barbara, July 19, 2025
"As our climate continues to shift, gardeners are noticing significant changes in traditional growing patterns. Plants that once thrived in specific seasons are now experiencing confused growth cycles, with some flowering too early and others struggling to adapt to unpredictable temperature swings.
"These fluctuations affect not just when plants grow, but how well they develop. Warmer winters can trick plants into breaking dormancy too early, leaving them vulnerable to late frosts. Meanwhile, extended growing seasons might seem beneficial, but they can lead to pest problems and throw off the natural timing of pollinator relationships.
"Many gardeners report seeing spring bulbs emerging weeks earlier than usual, and fall plants staying active longer into winter. While this might temporarily increase production in some regions, it also creates new challenges for maintaining healthy plant communities. The key is to work with these changes rather than against them, selecting varieties that can handle temperature swings and implementing season extension techniques when needed.
"To help your garden adapt, consider creating #microclimates using #WindBarriers and #shade structures, and experiment with different planting dates to find new rhythms that work in your changing environment."
