Cotoneaster × suecicus ‘Coral Beauty’ Description

Cotoneaster × suecicus ‘Coral Beauty’ forms a dense evergreen mound around 50cm to 1 metre high and up to 2.5 metres wide. Small glossy dark green leaves provide year-round cover, while clusters of white flowers appear during summer and attract bees. A generous crop of vivid orange berries follows in autumn and often remains through winter until eaten by birds. Its broad habit suits banks, slopes, raised beds, border fronts and low informal screening. Grow in full sun or partial shade in any well-drained soil. It is exceptionally hardy and reliable in Ireland, including many coastal positions. Avoid waterlogged ground, prune only where stems obstruct paths and do not treat the ornamental berries as edible fruit.
