Given a RHS Award of Garden Merit in 1993, it has become a stalwart performer in gardens all over the United Kingdom, providing a dependable, low-maintenance attractive feature for the whole year. Cotoneasters come to us from the mountainous regions of Southern China, where they grew in rocky ground and poor soils.

In spring and early summer, the shrub features small white flowers, which later develop into orange-red berries, all surrounded by the foliage which turns to a reddish-brown in winter.  Remaining throughout the winter, the berries will provide visual interest and attract birds to your garden. Cotoneaster Coral Beauty grows to an ultimate height of 0.5 to 1 metres over a period of 5 to 10 years, with a spread of 1.5 to 2.5 metres, making it an excellent ground cover, either in foundation plantings or in landscaping. Cotoneaster Suecicus Coral Beauty has a hardiness level of H6, so you can grow it anywhere in the UK and Northern Europe without a sheltered location, as it is fully hardy.  The shrub thrives in both full sun and partial shade, in sand, clay, chalk, or loam, and will tolerate either acid or alkaline soils.  It is best to grow it in well-drained, dry situations similar to the conditions in which it developed.  Once well-established, it will even thrive during a drought.Cotoneaster Coral Beauty is best used in a rock garden, foundation planting, or as a ground cover in areas that you do not want to have to maintain constantly. On a slope it can help to control erosion. While it does add a pop of colour to your landscaping year-round, it is particularly useful as decorative  ground cover. Save this beautiful, low growing evergreen for locations where you can let it spread!  Light pruning is only necessary to remove any dead growth.You may also be interested in other low growing cotoneasters such as Cotoneaster dammeri Streib’s Findling, also a profuse producer of autumn berries.

The shrub’s attractive features are most prominent once the leaves have fallen in winter when the stem and bark are at their most vivid and vibrant. Cornus sanguinea Midwinter Fire is a spectacular statement plant for your garden. A deciduous, multi-stemmed shrub, in late spring / early summer, Cornus Midwinter Fire forms milky white clusters of flowers. In summer, the small white flowers give way to dark purple berries, which are both a treat for the birds and highly decorative. In autumn, the green foliage turns a bright orange-yellow. However, the most noticeable feature of the Cornus sanguinea Midwinter Fire are its flame-like stems. Once the foliage drops off in the winter, this unique shrub really stands out. Since Cornus Sanguinea is fully hardy throughout the UK, you’ll be able to enjoy this flamboyant shrub even if the temperatures drop to -20 degrees.  A North European native, Midwinter Fire dogwood tolerates most types of soil, but thrives in a moist, well-drained position. When it comes to sunlight, Cornus sanguinea 'Midwinter Fire’ prefers full sun to partial shade. This deciduous shrub can grow up to 1.5-2.5 metres high and across, achieving its ultimate height over a 5 to 10 year period.  Easy to grow and easy to care for, Cornus sanguinea Midwinter Fire isn’t only appealing because of its distinctive stems.  It also makes for a great informal hedge.

Cornus Alba Sibirica or Siberian Dogwood for Sale Online

Cornus Alba Sibirica or Siberian Dogwood for Sale Online

Cornus Alba Sibirica also known as Siberian Dogwood is a popular tree or shrub and a real winter pleasure. It has one of the brightest barks in winter, as it blazes with vivid red colour when exposed to the sun. Siberian Dogwood is not fussy about soil and is easy to cultivate and maintain. The previous season’s vivid growth is cut back each year to form a thicket of crimson stems that naturally expands by layering. While Cornus Alba Sibirica is prized for its vibrant coloured bark that can blaze orange-red and yellow, it has many other decorative attributes. So much so, that many homeowners plant Siberian Dogwoods as a focal point on their lawns because of their ornamental value. In addition to attractive bark colour, Siberian Dogwood produces small creamy white flowers in spring. They appear in flat-topped clusters measuring about two inches each. The large foliage is a grey-green with white margins which turn a vibrant reddish purple in autumn. Clusters of bluish-white fruits emerge during late summer. The fruits have as much ornamental value as the flowers. They are also attractive to birds and pollinators. Red winter stems gradually turn darker as spring approaches. In terms of size, Siberian Dogwoods can grow to 10 feet tall. In terms of aspect, Dogwoods tolerate different types of soils and do well in open spaces where their stems look best during winter. If you are planning to plant a red-stemmed dogwood alongside a yellow or gold one for contrast, consider keeping them in matching groups rather than mixing them up.Dogwood pruning should be carried out in spring to ensure a brighter display during winter. Prune the stems almost to ground level to encourage new shoots to emerge. The new shoots can grow over four feet tall during spring and summer. The fresh growth provides a vibrant colour the following winter. Cornus alba Sibirica is a Tatarian Dogwood cultivar with brilliant red stems in winter that provide an attractive display on sunny winter days, even further embellished when there is snow on the ground. This is fast growing, multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub that requires minimal maintenance. The tree grows well in organically rich, medium moisture, well-drained soils. Consider trimming your Siberian Dogwood roots with a spade regularly to remove unwanted root suckers.For the best displays, Cornus Alba Sibirica should be grown with full exposure to the sun or partly shaded. Although the tree can tolerate a wide range of soils, it should be planted in moist, well-drained soil. Young stems often have the most vivid and impressive colours. We deliver Siberian Dogwood throughout the UK, Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic.

Cornus Alba Gouchaultii Variegated Dogwood Tartarian Dogwood

Cornus Alba Gouchaultii Variegated Dogwood Tartarian Dogwood

Cornus Alba Gouchaultii also called Variegated Dogwood or Tartarian Dogwood, is an excellent landscaping shrub providing an attractive garden accent in all seasons! This hardy deciduous red barked dogwood has many striking features - variegated foliage with colours of lime green, golden yellow and red tips (when young); white spring flowers and bright red stems which become highly visible in winter.  Native to central Asia, Cornus Alba Gouchaultii’s variegated leaves emerge in spring with a tinge of pink, maturing to a bright green centre edged with gold with splashes of pink. In late spring, its flat-topped clusters of small, yellow-white flowers appear, followed by ornamental white berries which will attract birds to your garden. After the leaves fall in autumn, the bright red stems of Tartarian Dogwood create a striking winter picture! Hardy in most parts of the UK, Variegated Dogwood will grow to a mature height of 2 metres and spread of 1.5 metres in 5 to 10 years. This vigorous grower responds very positively to pruning, as the best winter stem colour is obtained from newer growth. Cut one quarter of the stems back to the ground in early spring so that the new growth will shine in winter, while the older stems will flower and produce the decorative berries. If planting as an informal hedge or in a clump, space Tartarian Dogwood 90-150 cm apart. Cornus Alba Gouchaultii will thrive when planted in full or partial sun in moist, fertile chalk, loam or sand soil with an acid to neutral pH. It will do well in an exposed or sheltered position with any aspect. Tolerant of salt, Tartarian Dogwood is a good shrub for a coastal location, and its extremely high tolerance for pollution makes it ideal for city gardens. As well, being deer and rabbit resistant, it is well-suited to country gardens. Variegated Dogwood particularly lends itself well to mass plantings so that the winter show of its vivid red stems can make a big statement! Plant in a row as an informal hedge, or as part of a mixed hedge for variety. On a larger country property, a mass planting in a damp spot will be a magnet for pollinators and birds, as well as providing a stand-out display in an otherwise drab winter landscape. In a smaller garden, one specimen plant of Tartarian Dogwood will make a big impact all on its own, and can be easily pruned to maintain a manageable size.Cornus Alba Gouchaultii, with its hardiness and year-round ornamental value, is a great addition to your garden, whether it’s one specimen in the corner of a city garden or a mass planting on a country property! Other red barked dogwoods include Cornus Alba Aurea, Cornus Alba Sibirica Siberian Dogwood and Cornus Alba Elegantissima.
