After the long dark winter months, the arrival of spring is a welcome time in the garden, with many bulbs, trees and shrubs bursting into life, bringing a welcome spash of colour.
This is the first bush cherry, as opposed to a tree, so forms a nice neat clump of many fruiting branches right from the base - and as a result does not get too tall, and makes picking really easy - as well as netting from pesky birds.
With last spring’s displays still fresh in your mind, now’s a great time to plan planting styles and combinations that inspired you or choose something beautiful to plug any gaps in the border.
These beautiful penstemons will cause a stir in your garden for years to come. From spring to early autumn, nectar rich, bell-shaped flowers are held on tall, swaying stems and will attract scores of bees and other pollinators.
Cercidiphyllum japonicum is known as the Katsura tree or toffee apple tree due to the scent of its autumn leaves. In spring, leaves are flushed pink then turn green in summer, before changing to shades of yellow, purple and red in autumn and releasing a sweet toffee-like fragrance as they fall.
