Beautiful healthy plant as usual from crocus.
I have used crocus many times over the years and have always found them brilliant to deal with. Slightly more expensive than other companies but for quality etc well worth it.

This shrub is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.

We first noted this bush when we went to stat at Bressingham Hall, in Allan Bloom's days. We eventually found the right bush and have enjoyed it's perfume for many years, passers by often ask what the name is. I think this is the best of all bushes, doesn't spread too much and delights with the scent. Has no faults that I have found, only beautiful results.

Hello, These plants require minimal pruning, but if you do need to cut it back, it should be tackled in midsummer. Pruning however may have an adverse effect on the production of flowers in the following year. To make ensure a good supply of flowers, try to make sure the plant gets lots of sun, water and fertiliser.

Hello Margaret, it is rare to find larger sized Ceanothus as they are usually quite short-lived and don't normally live longer than 6 - 8 years. We do have a selection of larger shrubs on our site like Hamamelis, Hydrangeas, Magnolias, Acer, Cornus, Cotinus, Philadelphus, Syringa and Viburnum, so you may find something of interest. They will be listed in this section. http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/ I hope this helps. Helen Plant Doctor

Wildlife-friendly gardens are not only more interesting as you can watch all the comings and goings, but they are often more productive as many creatures will help increase pollination. Garden ponds act as a magnet to dragonflies and damsel flies, along w
