The leaves remain on the branches into early winter.

It will thrive in dry conditions, and in fact will not tolerate wet soil. As the name Sea Buckthorn Silver Star indicates, it is a good match for a coastal location, since it is very salt-tolerant, and is equally well-suited to a city garden, since it is tolerant of pollution as well. Deer and rabbit resistant, it’s a great choice for country gardens, too! Sea Buckthorn Silver Star is an excellent container plant for roof terraces, patios, and courtyards, as its compact size, dense growth and long-lasting attractive foliage makes it a perfect low maintenance architectural shrub, whether it’s one specimen plant, or in a row forming a privacy screen. It also makes a good roadside hedge. Hippophae Rhamnoides Hikul makes an excellent plant for a Mediterranean or gravel garden, and in a coastal garden, this tough plant can be an effective windbreak to shelter more delicate specimen plants. On a dry slope, a mass planting of Hippophae Rhamnoides Hikul will provide erosion control. Hippophae Rhamnoides Hikul is a low-maintenance architectural shrub which will provide a long season of foliage and an attractive rounded shape in dry conditions, making it a great choice for UK gardeners looking for either specimen shrubs or privacy hedges or windbreaks!

Cornus Sanguinea Midwinter fire. Midwinter Fire Dogwood

Cornus Sanguinea Midwinter fire. Midwinter Fire Dogwood

Cornus Sanguinea Midwinter Fire, commonly known as Midwinter Fire Dogwood, has many ornamental features but is perhaps most renowned for its vibrant reddish bark, particularly in winter.  The colours of the stem range from bright yellow at the bottom to warm orange tones turning scarlet towards the tip. 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. Its suckering habit allows it to spread fast, which is especially convenient if you need a fast-growing shrub to fill in an empty space in the garden. Since Cornus sanguinea is generally pest and disease free, you can plant it en masse without fear of fungus or other infestations spreading.  Resilient and practically maintenance-free, Cornus Midwinter Fire requires little to no pruning. Because of the striking colour of Midwinter Fire’s young stems, some gardeners prefer to cut the old stems down to the ground in the early spring, every 2 to 3 years. If you’re not keen on leaving a bare spot in your garden for weeks on end, the alternative is to remove a third of the old stems each spring, which will stimulate new growth. If you are looking for more shrubs with an impressive winter look, take a peek at more dogwood cultivars or our selection of ornamental shrubs.

This compact, improved hybrid is bred for smaller garden spaces, boasting enhanced hardiness, drought resistance, and exceptionally long flowering panicles. With fragrant lavender-blue blooms set against dark, aromatic foliage and distinctive black stems, it brings striking colour and texture just as many other plants are fading. A magnet for pollinators and a true multi-season performer, this variety brings modern versatility to a traditionally warm-climate shrub.Vitex Agnus-Castus Magical Chicagoland Blues is a deciduous shrub with a refined, rounded habit and a bushy, upright form. The foliage is highly decorative – composed of 5 to 7 narrow, lance-shaped leaflets radiating in a hand-like shape, giving the plant a distinctive, airy elegance. The leaves are a rich green shade and release a subtle, pleasant fragrance when brushed against – a trait often likened to lavender or sage.From late summer into early autumn, the plant produces upright panicles of small, tubular lavender-blue flowers. These are borne on dramatic dark stems, offering a strong contrast and long-lasting visual appeal. The flowers are not only attractive to the eye but are also sterile – meaning no unwanted self-seeding – while still being highly attractive to bees and butterflies, making it an excellent choice for pollinator-friendly gardens.Unlike the species form - Vitex Agnus-Castus - which can become large and unruly, this newer variety stays compact and manageable, yet delivers a profusion of colour and scent. Its improved hardiness extends the reach of Vitex into cooler climates, allowing gardeners in temperate regions to enjoy the charms of this sun-loving shrub.Height and Width of Vitex Magical Chicagoland BluesThis variety grows to a modest height and spread of around 1.5 to 2.5 metres, making it ideal for smaller borders, courtyards, or patio containers. Its well-balanced rounded habit means it looks neat without heavy pruning, and it's significantly more compact than the typical Vitex agnus-castus, which can reach over 3 metres.How Hardy is Chaste Tree Magical Chicagoland Blues?Vitex Agnus-Castus Magical Chicagoland Blues is notably hardier than the species, bred specifically to withstand colder winters and a wider range of growing conditions. It is suitable for gardens across much of the UK, particularly in well-drained, sheltered sites. Once established, it exhibits exceptional drought tolerance, making it a resilient choice for low-maintenance or Mediterranean-style planting schemes.Uses in Garden and LandscapeThanks to its compact form and late-season flowering, this improved chaste tree is incredibly versatile. Use it as a specimen shrub, in mixed borders, gravel gardens, or even large containers where its aromatic foliage and vibrant blooms can be appreciated up close. It makes an excellent choice for wildlife gardens due to its high nectar yield and non-invasive nature. Pair it with ornamental grasses, salvias, or drought-tolerant perennials for a naturalistic and water-wise display.Care TipsPlant Vitex Magical Chicagoland Blues in full sun for best flowering and foliage performance. It prefers well-drained soil and does best in a sheltered spot protected from cold winds. Water regularly during establishment, but once settled in, it is highly drought tolerant. Prune in early spring to shape and encourage new flowering growth – flowering occurs on new wood. It is generally pest- and disease-free and requires little maintenance beyond an annual tidy-up.Origins and Distinctive FeaturesVitex Agnus-Castus Magical Chicagoland Blues was developed by the Chicago Botanic Garden and selected for its suitability to North American climates from California to the deep south – and now proving equally useful in UK gardens. Compared to standard Vitex agnus-castus, this variety is more compact, better behaved, and longer flowering.
