A superb new variety of Hypericum (St John's Wort), Hypericum 'Magical Innocence' will delight gardeners with its profusion of bright yellow flowers, with their sprays of long anthers and not forgetting the colourful berries!

Popular in flower arrangements, this hypericum is ideal for a sunny or part-shaded position, and because of its compact nature, makes the perfect specimen for a patio or balcony pot. Bees and many other beneficial pollinating insects find the sunny flowers of Hypericum irresistible and you're guaranteed months of colour as it starts blooming in June and continues right through to September, with its berries appearing from August.

Commonly known as the snowberry, Symphoricarpus 'Magical Sweet' produces masses of round, soft pink berries in the autumn, which cover the plants in winter. A member of the honeysuckle family, this deciduous shrub produces succulent berries that stay on the bush after the leaves have fallen, giving a definite festive feel to the plants as they enter their winter dormancy. If you're looking for an attractive plant to liven up your borders, then this is the ideal plant for you! Blooming in summer, 'Magical Sweet' produces sprays of dainty pinkish white blooms. Easy to grow, Symphoricarpus will thrive in a sunny spot, and is also tolerant of shade. It spreads by suckering, quickly forming a dense thicket that provides a haven for wildlife such as nesting birds and pollinating insects, making it invaluable for a low hedge. Supplied as 3 x established plants in 9cm pots, ready for immediate planting.
