The Corkscrew Hazel grew in popularity as evermore renowned gardeners began admiring the bonsai-like, sculptural charms and deeply gnarled bark of this twisted hazel.

Heptacodium MiconioidesHeptacodium Miconioides, also known as the Seven Sons Plant, has only been grown in the UK in the past thirty years, but is fast becoming a garden favourite for its fragrant blooms and year-round interest. It has been given the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Native to China, deciduous Heptacodium Miconioides has the fragrant flowers that you would expect from a member of the honeysuckle family, and those flowers bloom at a time when many other flowering shrubs are done for the season, from late summer to late autumn.

It does need well-drained soil, however. Although it is reliably hardy, Heptacodium Miconioides is best grown in a sheltered position, with an east, south, or west-facing aspect, in full sun or partial shade. It is usually unaffected by insect pests or disease. Heptacodium miconioides can be grown as a spreading shrub, or can be pruned and trained into a small tree as it matures. It makes a lovely planting at the back of a flower border, where its foliage will provide a background for spring and summer flowers before its own flowers blossom late in the season. It would also make an excellent specimen planting in a courtyard, or as the focal point in a lawn, where its year-round interest would be highlighted. Since seven sons plant is salt-tolerant, it is an excellent choice for a seaside garden or windy coastal areas.

These long-lasting and exotic-looking plants will fit right in to a shady spot in your garden! Native to western China, Hydrangea Aspera Villosa are a type of what are called rough-leaved hydrangea, but that descriptor belies the soft, velvety texture of the greyish-green leaves of this deciduous shrub.

One of the advantages of the Hydrangea Villosa Group is that it is not dependent on an acid soil to maintain the blue colouration. While it will grow in a coastal garden, it should be given some protection from salt winds. However, hydrangeas are very tolerant of pollution, so will do well in city gardens.

Plant it in a mixed border or against a wall for maximum impact, but give it room to spread. It’s a natural choice for a cottage garden!

Parrotia Persica trees for sale UK. Persian Ironwood Tree

Parrotia Persica or Persian Ironwood TreeThe Persian Ironwood tree is a most attractive addition to any garden. Very closely related to witch hazel, this is truly a tree for all seasons. Parrotia Persica has a peeling, greyish-coloured bark in winter.  As spring arrives, its clusters of dark red flowers are small but abundant. Summer brings a glossy green foliage and in autumn, the Persian Ironwood puts on an amazing show of first yellow, then orange and finishing with a fiery purplish red hue before finally shedding its leaves to prepare for winter. Parrotia Persica looks great standing free in a lawn; or as a border with substance. As the name suggests, its wood is very strong, another common name being the Iron Tree.A member of the Hamamelidaceae family, the Parrotia Genus is named after Dr Friedrich Wilhelm Parrot (1792-1841), a German traveller and naturalist who observed it while climbing mountains in the Northern Iran. The Persian Ironwood tree occurs natively only in a small portion of that area, near Azerbaijan and Northern Iran. Its native growth habit begins as a large shrub with plentiful stems; maturing to a low-branching round-headed tree. It can reach very tall heights, with a standard, single trunk that supports both erect and drooping branches. That character trait along with its sturdy wood made it popular for use as telephone poles, tool handles, fence posts and other lumber where strength is needed.Parrotia are considered deciduous trees that have broad ovate leaves with progressive colour change through the summer and autumn. Its small but prolific red flowers emerge in late winter and early spring. Managed as a wide-spreading tree or large shrub, Parrotia Persica can grow to between 4-8m in height and wider than 8m in spread. It is hardy to Zone H7 in the UK, so it’s well suited to virtually all of our climate zones. A slow grower, it takes approximately 20-50 years for this beauty to reach its ultimate height.The Persian Ironwood prefers full sun or partial shade, but its colours are most pronounced when provided abundant sunlight. Its aspect preferences include North, East, South, or West facing; and it will persist whether sheltered or exposed. Parrotia Persica likes moist, but well-drained soils across any or all soil textures as long as the site drains and holds nutrients with fairly consistent moisture. It prefers slightly acid to alkaline or slightly alkaline soils.
