Plant details
Deciduous cotoneasters are fine plants with attractive flowers in late spring and early summer, but they are mainly grown for their brilliant displays of berries and bright leaf tints in autumn, when they become a major feature. C. divaricatus is one of the best for late colour. It is a handsome shrub, quite large for many gardens but easily restrained by annual pruning, and very attractive when in flower, the small cup-shaped blooms, flushed with pink, prettily decorating the branching stems. In autumn the berries and leaves combine in a fiery display.
