COTONEASTER HORIZONTALIS

Wall cotoneaster is a small, spreading deciduous shrub with neat, glossy green leaves that develop rich red-orange autumn colour. In late spring it bears small pink-flushed flowers, followed by abundant bright red berries in autumn. Ideal for banks and slopes, ground cover, and low screening, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, reaching around 1m high by 1.5m wide.
