Save money on showy physocarpu­s

-

Named in honour of the Diamond Jubilee of HRH Queen Elizabeth II, this superb physocarpu­s plant can’t be missed. With its opulent foliage colour, leaves emerge a rich marmalade-pink before they mature to green, 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 ‘Amber Jubilee’ is a shrub with exceptiona­l year-round interest. In early summer, dense clusters of creamy, pink-tinged flowers form neat balls of blooms 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, this physocarpu­s is a 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 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 an establishe­d plant in a 9cm (3½in) pot, ready for planting out or potting on, ‘Amber Jubilee’ will reach around 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft)in 10 years and is really easy to grow – the perfect garden plant for any level of experience! Buy an establishe­d plant for just £6.99 – SAVING £3 on the normal price of £9.99.
