Description for Photinia fraseri Little Red Robin 9cm Pot Plants - Set of 3 not available
With its opulent foliage colour, leaves emerge a rich orange-red, before they mature to burgundy, creating a stunning show which ends in autumn as the leaves turn red and purple before falling in an extravagant cascade of colour. The show isn't restricted to the leaves however, as 'Little Angel' is shrub with exceptional year-round interest. In early summer, dense clusters of creamy, pink-tinged flowers form neat balls of bloom and these are followed in autumn by burgundy fruit pods which extend the colour in your garden right up to leaf-fall! A compact shrub, bred to perform in your garden, Physocarpus Little Angel is a garden plant that very few other gardeners will have, and its colour changing nature makes this a garden must-have and certainly a plant that you'll want to give pride of place to so that everyone can see it! The unique foliage will form the perfect backdrop for your other garden plants and goes especially well with blues and purples. Supplied as 3 x established plants in 9cm pots, ready for planting out or potting on, Physocarpus Little Angel Ninebark will reach around 1m in 10 years and is really easy to grow - the perfect garden plant for any level of experience!
A rarely available, vibrant selection of the popular stripy Zebra Grass, Miscanthus 'Little Zebra' has attractive gold striping and fluffy plumes of deep red-pink flowers. A dwarfing variety, the compact mound of foliage holds its form well with less chance of flopping over so is ideal for adding texture and colour to pots and garden borders. It also changes colour to a lovely pale almond over the winter to add extended seasonal interest. From August to September, the deep red-pink plumes of flower appear, gracefully arching over the clump. Gradually fading to silver as the winter approaches, they curl and contrast wonderfully with the leaves and give rise to the little beauty's other name of Japanese Silver Grass. Supplied as 3 x established plants in 9cm pots, ready to be planted straight out. Will grow to a height and spread of approx. 1m (3ft).

This veritable superfood is believed to carry all manner of health benefits and is recommended by health experts and dieticians accordingly. Packed full of vitamins and minerals as well as antioxidants, they are not only really good for you, but they taste great too! Blueberries provide true season-long interest and will produce wonderfully fragrant tubular blossom in spring, followed by delicious fruits that form and colour up ready for picking from June onwards. Little Blue Wonder is the result of dedicated breeding work to produce a compact, hardy blueberry and it certainly fulfils the brief. Growing to just 40-60cm high it's hardy down to -30°C and makes the ideal specimen plant for patios and balconies in containers and for gardens too - just remember to use ericaceous (slightly acidic pH) compost though as all blueberries are lime intolerant. Highly ornamental, in spring the bush becomes covered in pale flowers - so much so that it has earned this blueberry the name the 'Heather Blueberry'. Then in autumn, the foliage will provide a bright flourish of burgundy red colour before falling off for the winter. Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot ready for immediate planting.
This petite Choisya is perfect for the smaller garden or container growing.
Picking plump, juicy figs straight from a tree is one of life's greatest pleasures, especially when served up with some wafer thin slices of Parma ham and a drizzle of honey. Divine! Boasting masses of large, pear-shaped fruit with deep red flesh that are ready for picking in late summer and early autumn, 'Little Miss Figgy' is perfect in a large pot. Even before the fruit is ripe this dwarf variety adds a presence to the garden as branches are clothed with large, deeply lobed leaves. Despite originating from warmer climates, this amazing compact fig is incredibly tough, easily shrugging off temperatures down to -15°C in the UK. Extremely drought tolerant when established, figs do best in a brightly lit, sunny spot. Keep plants productive and compact by restricting roots by growing in large pots.
