Also known as Red Hot Poker, this easy, reliable perennial is an old favourite for herbaceous borders. Upright stems tower over strap like evergreen foliage, and carry impressive torch-like flower heads formed from a blaze of tiny flowers. The fiery blooms are also highly attractive to bees. Kniphofia 'Popsicle' makes a tough and reliable choice for perennial borders, thriving with very little attention. Height: 60cm (24). Spread: 40cm (16).
Photinia x fraseri 'Red Robin' holds an RHS Award of Garden Merit, and is rightly popular for its brilliant red young foliage. This hardy, evergreen shrub produces clusters of dainty white flowers in spring, followed by small red berries. Regular pruning allows ?Red Robin? to be maintained as an attractive feature, adding interest to borders all year round. In sheltered positions, this versatile shrub is also useful as an evergreen hedge. Height and spread: up to 4m (13?).
This distinctive Lacecap Hydrangea is a robust, hardy shrub which will flower right through summer, producing pretty blooms up to 30cm (12) across. The showy flowers have violet-blue hearts and soft pink outer florets, and contrast wonderfully with the rich chocolate foliage. These unusual leaves produce a second display in autumn as they fade to deep green followed by amber and golden shades. This large, deciduous shrub has a neat habit and is an ideal border filler, requiring minimal care - even in poorer soils. Height and spread: 3m (10'). Supplied in 9cm pots.

No prizes for guessing where they get their name from - their classic spring flowers zing with intense colour. Usually red, this is the first widely available pink, and what a neon-pink it is too! Each flower is made up of thousands of thin stamens, each pollen rich, so become a mecca for bees and butterflies early in the season. Flowering in spring, it is great to attract early season pollinators to fruit - and sometimes has a mini flush of flowers again in autumn. Grow in a pot in a warm and sunny spot, in a well-drained mix. Although hardy to -5C or so, we would advise some winter protection, as early leaves and growth can be damaged.Top Tips- Callistemon will flower best when grown in full sun in moist but well drained soil in a sheltered position away from cold winds.- Outdoors, Callistemon (Bottlebrush) look great in mixed borders especially if combined with other drought tolerant plants such as salvias and lavenders.Care GuidePlanting Advice for Callistemon Bottlebrush:- Generally unfussy as to soil, poor soil benefits from the addition of plenty of organic matter.- Once established plants don't need special attention and are generally problem-free.- Pot-grown trees can be planted at any time of the year as long as the soil is not waterlogged or frozen.- Dig a square planting hole 3 x wider than the roots of the shrub you're planting and mix some well-rotted compost or manure with the soil from the hole and use this to re-fill once the shrub is in place.- Before planting soak container-grown shrubs thoroughly and allow to drain.- Remove your Callistemon from its pot and tease out a few of the roots.- Add Mycorrhizal fungi to the roots when planting to help plants establish quicker.- Place your tree in the hole at the same level at the pot, refill, firm, and water well.- Mulch around the base of the plant.- Plants can also be grown in a pot using a good quality soil-based compost.Aftercare Advice for your Bottlebrush:- Although drought-tolerant, Callistemon requires regular watering.- Feed with a general-purpose liquid feed in the growing season and top dress in the spring.- Callistemon can get out of hand under glass so restrictive pruning may be necessary to keep their shape.- Hardy in the UK down to -4°C! In very exposed sites, a fleece cover and mulch will see them safely through the winter. Potted plants can be moved to a cool conservatory or greenhouse.Pruning Advice for Callistemon:- Lightly prune after flowering to keep them under control, cutting just behind the spent bloom.- Callistemons in general don't like hard-pruning, so just remove spent flowerheads immediately after flowering, or trim new growth to maintain shape.Planting Time:March - AugustFlowering Time:March - MayAbout You GardenEstablished for over 50 years, our award winning trusted plant supplier are based in South Lincolnshire.
