Landscape - WIP - how to add more depth?

Description

Landscape in oils, (Winsor Newton Artisan).
40x80cm.

The 'shrubs' in the background are supposed to be trees.
How can I add more depth to the grass to create the distance that will make the shrubs trees?
Feel free to photoshop the hell out of this to show me. Thanks!!

tonal perspective should help - the colours becoming less saturated as they get further away, creating the "hazy" look suggested by the above commenter. I'm not sure what else to suggest as I'm not that great at backgrounds myself :lol: I was trying to do a similar thing here [link]
