Camellia Japonica Lady Campbell Red Flowering Camellia

Camellia Japonica Lady Campbell There are over 30,000 cultivars of the Camellia Japonica but the Lady Campbell cultivar remains a popular choice for its outstanding red flowers and its upright compact bushy growth habit. When fully grown, this camellia stands at around 2 metres in height with a similar spread. The evergreen leaves of the Camellia Japonica Lady Campbell measure about 10 centimetres in length. Each leaf is leathery and tough. The dense, green leaves hold their colour throughout the year and make the shrub a highly coveted hedge plant choice. When grown as a hedge, it is suggested that the bushes be spaced 180 centimetres apart. They may be staggered to create a faster, denser hedge. Camellia japonica Lady Campbell will produce a profusion of blossoms that measure from 7 to 19 centimetres in diameter. The masses of non-stop flowers stand out in stark contrast against the deep, dark green foliage. The flowers make ideal cut blossoms for bouquets. The Camellia Japonica Lady Campbell grows best when planted in partial to full shade. Ideally it should be located in a place that affords protection from the morning and hot afternoon sun. Choose a planting site for the Lady Campbell camellia that is well-draining without pooled water. It requires consistently moist, acidic soil that is rich in organic material. Cold drying winds frequently damage the foliage and buds of the shrub. It should be planted in a sheltered location that provides some protection from cold, drying winds and storms.  After flowering, the Camellia Japonica benefits from a light pruning. It can also be pruned to thin branching and control size or shape. Camellia Japonica Lady Campbell grows well in containers beside patios or walkways. It is also an ideal shrub for a woodland or cottage-style garden setting. It can be used as a focal specimen or mass planted for a truly outstanding flower display. With proper care, most Camellia Japonica varieties are exceptionally long-lived. In Japan’s historic garden of the emperor, Camellia Japonica shrubs are believed to be over 500 years old. Throughout Korea, Japan, and China the camellia has remained a favourite down through the centuries because of its eye-catching flowers and lush foliage.

Lonicera Nitida Maigrun. Honeysuckle May Green Shrub Buy UK

Lonicera Nitida Maigrun. Honeysuckle May Green Shrub Buy UK

Lonicera Nitida Maigrun is also known as Honeysuckle Maigrun and Honeysuckle May GreenLonicera Nitida Maigrun is the botanical name for the variety, Honeysuckle Maigrun, commonly known as Honeysuckle May Green. This variety is a dense evergreen, spreading shrub-like plant that reaches heights of 1 to 1.5 meters or more, Honeysuckle May Green is highly valued as a hedge plant. Although the plant has a somewhat delicate appearance due to the tiny, fine-textured leaves, Lonicera Nitida is nearly indestructible and highly resistant to pests and disease. Lonicera Nitida Maigrun, is a vigorous shrub and a real stunner with miniature oval leaves that remain a vibrant green year round, this variety is a much brighter green than other Lonicera Nitadas. Although the creamy white flowers are relatively insignificant, they do add interest in late spring, providing a lovely contrast against the bright green foliage. The lightly scented blooms are followed in late summer by attractive, dark purple berries that songbirds love. Although Honeysuckle May Green is traditionally used as a hedge plant, it can also be planted along borders or in mixed beds. Additionally, May Green works well as a groundcover, serving as an effective means of erosion control.  Mature height of the plant is approximately 1 to 1.5 metres.Lonicera Nitida isn’t fussy and requires a minimum of care. It tolerates either full sun or partial shade and thrives in nearly any type of moist, rich, well-drained soil. However, the plant won’t survive poorly drained, overly wet soil and may succumb to rot. Wet conditions also invite powdery mildew, a fungal disease that won’t kill the plant, but will adversely affect its appearance. Once established, Honeysuckle May Green requires very little moisture unless the weather is unusually dry. A light application of any high quality, general-purpose fertiliser gets the plant off to a healthy start every spring. A layer of compost or mulch such as wood chippings or conifer bark keeps the soil moist, suppresses weeds, and protects the roots during the winter months. Honeysuckle May Green tolerates pruning like a champ, so it isn’t difficult to maintain the desired height and shape. Although the plant benefits from a light trim to keep it neat and tidy throughout the growing season, a neglected shrub will quickly bounce back from a hard pruning in late winter or early spring. Lonicera Nitida can also be shaped into topiary, especially lending it's shape to globes or balls, a light trim through the growing season will keep them looking very elegant all year round.

These mature, beautifully shaped, ornamental trees are between 3.5 and 4 metres tall with a long, slim trunk circa 12 cm in diameter.

Small flowers emerge in creamy clusters in autumn which then go on to form the pretty, strawberry-shaped fruits. These fruit turn red when ripe and are adored by birds. The flowers last well into early winter and are sweetly scented. They provide pollen for bees and other pollinating insects at a time of the year when nectar can be scarce. Customers often ask us whether the Arbutus fruit is edible. The answer is yes! Arbutus fruits, which take a year to ripen, are edible as a raw fruit and are rich in vitamin C. Some may find them a little bland and conclude that they look more striking than they taste. In recipes, arbutus fruit is most commonly used in jams, syrups, chutneys and as a filler fruit for pies. The fruit is relatively large, about the size of an average strawberry in fact.The Arbutus Uneda Strawberry Tree is UK hardy. They are slow growing so they work well in smaller gardens. You can plant them in full sun or partial shade, ideally with shelter from strong winds. Younger plants may need protection in extra harsher winters until they are more mature and hardier. Growing Tip: Choose a sunny and sheltered spot to allow them to settle in. Pruning may mean the loss of fruit as they form fruits on the previous year's flowers.
