Korean Box is a fantastic compact shrub with long but finer leaves than most buxus. It's foliage is a bright green long oval shape with gloss. It is one of the lowest growing buxus and so is ideal for box hedging, however it can tend to turn yellow in full sun, so it will prefer a part shade/filtered light position.
Korean box is one of the slower growing varieties and is great in pots or as topiary's. This plant has a moderate growth rate that grows to approximately 50-60cm in height. Plant every 20cm - 5 per meter for an optimum hedge. | Hybrid tea rose 'Loving Memory'
Loving Memory Rose is a hardy, upright bush with bright red blooms and a slight fragrance. Available as a bush rose and 3ft standard.
8" pot size.
Available online ONLY - Not in store. | Cotinus Coggygria, Smoketree
Purple Smoke Bush is a gem in the garden thanks to it's unique blend of colours that change throughout the seasons. A large deciduous shrub or small tree, its beautiful eye-catching Spring foliage is green overlaid with purple. Summer brings deep purple foliage that then turns deep orange and bronze in a burst of glory for an Autumn show.
Purple Smokebush gets its name from the clouds of smoke-like purple and pink "flowers" it produces in early Summer. These are very beautiful themselves, and are prized along with the foliage by florists. Grows best in full sun to partial shade and it is tolerant of drought and most soils, making it a great addition to many gardens.
10" pot size. | Rosa hybrid tea
Pascali Rose displays classic shaped, fragrant creamy white blooms that are produced throughout the season. Perfect for cut flowers, cottage and rose gardens. Little maitenance required. Available in different varieties.
8" pot size, approximately 2ft in height. |
