Mahonia Nitens Cabaret Oregon Grape Winter Flowering Shrub

Mahonia Nitens Cabaret Oregon Grape Winter Flowering Shrub

Mahonia Nitens Cabaret, also known as Mahonia Cabaret or Oregon Grape Cabaret, is a compact, upright evergreen shrub prized for its vivid seasonal displays, striking architectural form, and wildlife-friendly credentials. Holding both the RHS Award of Garden Merit and the RHS Perfect for Pollinators badge, this low-maintenance shrub offers lasting visual interest from late summer through winter, while supporting biodiversity in your garden. Its distinctive colouration and manageable size make it an excellent choice for modern gardens, small spaces, and mixed borders alike.A standout member of the Mahonia family, Mahonia Nitens Cabaret forms a neat, upright clump of glossy, deep green foliage. Each leaf is attractively spined (similar to holly) and arranged in pinnate formation, creating bold texture and structure year-round. Unlike larger, more imposing Mahonia varieties such as Winter Sun or Charity, Cabaret is noted for its refined habit and tidy appearance.The real show begins in late summer when clusters of rich orange-red buds emerge, gradually opening into bright yellow, lightly scented flowers that continue to bloom well into autumn. The contrasting colours of burnt orange against golden yellow make this variety particularly eye-catching. After flowering, the plant produces attractive blue-grey berries that persist into winter, providing seasonal interest and a food source for birds.Compared to other well-known varieties like Mahonia Media Charity, which can grow quite tall with a more imposing spread. Or the finely textured Mahonia Eurybracteata Soft Caress, Mahonia Nitens Cabaret strikes a balance between showy flower power and compact form. Its smaller stature and refined shape make it especially suited to urban or courtyard gardens, where space is at a premium.Height and Width of Mahonia Nitens Cabaret:At maturity, Mahonia Nitens Cabaret typically reaches a height of 1.2 to 1.5 metres with a spread of around 1 metre. Its upright, clumping habit means it won’t outgrow its space, making it a reliable choice for smaller gardens or tight planting schemes.How Hardy is Mahonia Cabaret?Hardy to H5 (-15°C to -10°C), Mahonia Nitens Cabaret is well-suited to gardens across much of the UK and Ireland. It performs best in a sheltered position and can tolerate a range of soil types, provided they are free-draining. Once established, it is moderately drought tolerant and resilient to urban pollution.Uses in Garden and Landscape:Thanks to its bold foliage, vibrant flowers, and compact size, Mahonia Cabaret is ideal for use in mixed borders, shrub groupings, or as a specimen plant in smaller gardens. Its late-season colour makes it an excellent complement to autumn perennials and ornamental grasses. Plant it near seating areas or paths to enjoy its scented blooms and to attract bees, hoverflies, and birds.It’s also well-suited to plant containers, making it a versatile choice for patios and balconies. For a low-maintenance yet dynamic planting scheme, combine with shade-loving companions such as Heuchera, Ferns, and HelleboresCare TipsSoil: Prefers moist but well-drained soil. Will tolerate clay, loam, or sandy soils.Light: Thrives in partial shade, but will also grow in full sun in cooler areas.Pruning: Little pruning required. Trim after flowering if shaping is desired.Feeding: Mulch annually in spring with organic compost or well-rotted manure.Positioning: Best in a sheltered spot, away from cold drying winds.Originating from China, Mahonia Nitens is lesser-known than some of its larger cousins, but it delivers a vibrant, more compact alternative that doesn’t compromise on performance or visual impact. If you're looking for a year-round evergreen with true seasonal flair, Mahonia Cabaret is an inspired choice.

Mahonia Aquifolium or Oregon Grape Low Spreading Mahonia. Low growing Mahonia.

Mahonia Aquifolium or Oregon Grape Low Spreading Mahonia. Low growing Mahonia.

Mahonia Aquifolium, otherwise known as Oregon Grape, is a hardy, attractive, evergreen plant that has considerable ornamental value, as well as producing edible fruit. It’s a versatile landscape plant for UK gardeners to include in their landscape plans. Aquifolium is a low growing, spreading variety of Mahonia and has the usual clusters of yellow flowers followed by blue-black berries. Native to the Pacific Northwest, Mahonia Aquifolium was first brought to the UK in 1823, and has been a favourite of gardeners here ever since. Its evergreen leaves, similar to those of the holly plant, are red-tinted when they emerge in the spring, changing to a glossy deep green in summer, then purple in the autumn, and finally burgundy tinged with bronze in winter. In the winter to early spring, the plants are covered with clusters of fragrant yellow flowers. The blue-black berries which follow later in the year can be made into jams, jellies or wine. To ensure a good set of fruit, plant more than one Mahonia Aquifolium bush for cross-pollination. Hardy in most regions of the UK, Mahonia Aquifolium will grow to a mature height of 1-1.5 meters and spread of 1.25 metres over a period of 10 to 20 years. Once the plant has reached close to its full size, begin an annual pruning of your Mahonia Aquifolium to maintain vigorous growth, cutting back a quarter of the older stems to within 15 cm of the central trunk once it has finished flowering in early spring.These woodland natives will do best when planted in partial to full shade, in any well-drained soil, in an exposed or sheltered location. Mahonia Aquifolium is extremely drought-resistant, making it an ideal ground cover in challenging spots in the landscape, where there is little sun and the ground is dry. Since it is mostly resistant to pests and disease, it is almost maintenance-free.Mahonia Aquifolium is a perfect fit for a wildlife or woodland garden, where plants will spread by root suckers to fill in available space. On a north or east side of a house, where there is partial to full shade, Mahonia Aquifolium will make an excellent ground cover for a dry spot along the foundation, and in a shady corner of a mixed border the attractive, glossy leaves provide a backdrop for flowering plants throughout the growing season, before blooming themselves starting in November when most plants are done for the year. Mahonia Aquifolium has many qualities to recommend it to the UK gardener, from its winter flowering habit, to its attractive evergreen foliage, and its low-maintenance vigorous growth!

Styrax japonicus Snowcone Japanese Snowbell for Sale Online

Styrax japonicus Snowcone Japanese Snowbell for Sale Online

Styrax japonicus Snowcone Japanese SnowbellStyrax japonicus Snowcone also called the Japanese Snowbell Snowcone, is a cultivar of the Styrax japonicus family of small deciduous trees that was developed by the J. Frank Schmidt Nursery in Boring, Oregon. Unlike other Styrax trees in the family, Snowcone does not suffer from annual twig dieback in the spring. Instead, brilliant green new foliage emerges on every wide spreading fan-like branch during the spring months to create a robust, full tree with no unsightly dead twigs.As spring progresses into summer, large drooping bell-like flowers unfurl. The blooms have bright yellow centres and a subtle, pleasant fragrance. Snowcone produces an abundance of drooping flowers that often rustle in the breeze. The flower clusters dangle below the foliage and give it the appearance of being covered in frosty white snowcones. The blossoms always draw thirsty bees and butterflies to the garden. The Japanese Snowbell Snowcone is long flowering and it is not uncommon for the tree to retain flowers until autumn.Following flowering, decorative grey-green fruit mature to a shade of white on the tree. The fruit is small and hangs down from the foliage. It persists on the tree until November.During the autumn, the glossy fine-textured slightly serrated green foliage turns a brilliant golden hue. After the foliage falls from the tree, Styrax japonicus Snowcone still creates visual wintertime interest with its graceful lateral limbs that sweep upwards in a unique form. The new bark is smooth with a grey-brown shading. As it matures, the bark turns an orange-brown colour and features a fissured appearance.When fully grown, the Styrax japonicus Snowcone stands approximately 7.5 meters with a canopy width of about 6 meters. Its form is typically wide spreading fan like branches. The small size makes it ideal for virtually any landscape. Styrax japonicus Snowcone has a fibrous root system that prefers moist, well-draining soil but can tolerate sandy or clay conditions. For optimum growth, plant Japanese Snowbell Snowcone in full sun or light to open shade. During the tree’s first few summers it requires weekly watering until established. Even after the tree is established, it will still require periodic summertime watering during times of drought.

Calocedrus Decurrens. Incense Cedar Tree. White Cedar

Calocedrus Decurrens. Incense Cedar Tree. White Cedar

Calocedrus Decurrens or Incense Cedar Tree or White Cedar TreeAre you in search of an evergreen conifer tree which requires virtually zero maintenance?  Have a gander at Incense Cedar!  Also known as the White Cedar Tree, Calocedrus Decurrens is an evergreen conifer with glossy green foliage arranged on a columnar habit, but wider than some column formers such as the Italian Pencil Cypress.A member of the Cupressaceae Family, the Genus Calocedrus is known for its tiny, scale-like leaves aligned in ranks on the shoots and creating a flattened spray of foliage. They produce small, ovoid cones. Stepping into the details of C. decurrens, you’ll find a narrowly columnar habit, known for its flaking bark once established. Glossy, rich green sprays of leaves highlight this variety. Its small cones detach fairly soon after setting.Incense Cedar was first introduced to Britain in the 1850’s from the Western Region of North America, where its origins lie from the State of Oregon all the way to Baja California. Another region of origin was in Eastern Asia. The foliage of the Calocedrus Decurrens resembles Thuja but what sets it apart from most all the other conifers is its formal columnar shape. The entire plant is strongly aromatic, with virtually no issues with pests or diseases.White Cedar is very cold hardy. Known to withstand temperatures as cold as -20 C, it can grow to an ultimate height over 12 metres and a spread of 4-8 metres in the 20-50 years it takes to reach its full maturity. In its native environments, they can grow to 60 metres with a broad crown, but in the cooler climates of the UK, left on its own in an ideal location, it could reach 30 metres with a much more closely bunched, parallel shoot habit.In terms of its site preferences, the Incense Cedar Tree prefers full sun to partial shade with aspects by priority ranking South to North to West to East facing. It tolerates both exposed and sheltered positions in the landscape. It prefers well drained soils across most any combination of chalk, clay, sand, and loam. Not terribly choosey regarding pH, White Cedar will do well in slightly acid through to slightly alkaline soils. It can be grown on its own as a nice specimen tree; or align as an avenue planting for creating a low maintenance evergreen screen where space is limited. Once the tree matures, the flaking bark sets it apart as unmistakable.

It’s an excellent choice for formal Italianate gardens, doorsteps, and adding vertical height without width.Picea Pungens is the Colorado spruce that’s also called the Blue spruce. It’s native to the Rocky Mountains and found at elevations of 1,800 to 3,300 metres in Colarado, Utah, Wyoming and Idaho. The Iseli Fastigiate variety was discovered as a seedling in the Iseli Conifer Nursey, Oregon USA in 1965. The Iseli nursery is famous for its range of Colorado spruce trees including Iseli Foxtail and Iseli Gem. This fastigiate conifer is loved for its narrowly upright conical form with rich steel blue needles. It might be slender, but this spruce is so densely packed with needles it’s difficult to see through the branches. With its slim form, striking steel blue needles and ability to fit into almost every garden scheme, it’s no wonder this variety has been popular for decades.This variety can be used as a living Christmas tree. Height And Spread of Picea Pungens Iseli FastigiateColorado Spruce Iseli Fastigiate is naturally slim and reaches no more than 75 centimetres in width by three metres in height.How Hardy is Picea Pungens Iseli FastigiateColorado Spruce Iseli Fastigiate is as hardy as its parent plant and will cope easily with sub-zero winters in the UK if its roots are well drained. It can cope with some drought once established too.How To Use Picea Pungens Iseli FastigiateThe most obvious use of the American fastigiate spruce is adding height without volume in small to medium-sized gardens, but it’s also excellent in rock gardens and Japanese gardens.

No pruning is required, but the number one killer of newly planted trees is lack of water, so give it a watering can full each day until you spot new growth. Trees need lots of water to establish their root system no matter how drought-tolerant their mature form is.A thick layer of acidic mulch (bracken, pine or ericaceous compost) each year will boost its nutrient intake and seal in moisture.

This Norway Maple cultivar will provide a long season of interest, from early spring to late autumn!While Norway Maples are native to northern Europe, they are popular landscaping trees around the world. The cultivar Acer Platanoides Emerald Queen was selected in 1959 in Oregon, USA. In April, the attractive yellow flowers emerge before the foliage on bare branches, giving bees and butterflies a valuable early source of nectar. The flowers are then complemented by the bronze-red young leaves in the familiar maple leaf shape, which mature to a deep glossy green in summer, and then a bright yellow-orange in autumn. The flowers of Norway Maple Emerald Queen are followed by winged green fruits or samaras, which will attract birds and add visual interest into the autumn.Hardy throughout the UK and across continental Europe, Acer Platanoides Emerald Queen will grow to a mature height of 20 metres and spread of 18 metres in 20 to 50 years. Its crown starts out in a narrow shape, but broadens into a full, rounded crown as the tree matures. Choose planting locations carefully, as the shallow root system will interfere with pavement and grass growth, and Norway Maple Emerald Queen requires considerable space for its eventual large size. This is a tree which will last for more than 100 years!Plant Acer Platanoides Emerald Queen in full sun or partial shade in an exposed or sheltered position in any moist but well-drained soil. Once it is established it will withstand periods of drought. Tolerant of sea winds, it is suitable for use in coastal regions, and it is highly tolerant of pollution, making it perfect for city gardens. As it is also deer-resistant, Norway Maple Emerald Queen can be grown on country properties without special protection.Acer Platanoides Emerald Queen makes an excellent low-maintenance shade tree for larger gardens; one specimen would be a good focal point in a larger lawn, where the dense foliage growth of summer would provide considerable shade.Acer Platanoides Emerald Queen is deservedly a favourite where reliable shade and colourful foliage is desired; it will grow in a variety of soils and climates, and provide ornamental interest for generations! Other Norway Maple clutivars include for example the variegated Acer Platanoides Drummondii, Acer Platanoides Royal Red which has red foliage and Acer Platanoides Globosum which has a naturally rounded growth habit.

Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana Ivonne False Cypress Ivonne Tree

Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana Ivonne False Cypress Ivonne Tree

Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana ‘Ivonne’ (or Yvonne) is a medium sized, hardy evergreen conifer that has an impressive conical form and signature golden yellow foliage, particularly in winter. Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana (Lawson's Cypress or False Cypress) is the UK’s most popular garden conifer. The variety Ivonne (sometimes referred to as Yvonne) is a recent, disease-resistant cultivar developed in Oregon State University and prized for its golden-yellow foliage.  Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Ivonne is immediately recognizable by its yellow hued leaves. It has flat, soft needles of bright yellow-green from spring to summer, changing to an almost golden colour during the winter months. As the foliage matures, the leaves become closely pressed together in flat sprays. The foliage is fragrant. Each Lawson’s Cypress Ivonne tree produces small male (white turning red) and female (blue turning green) flowers in spring / summer. The female flowers go on to develop into small, brown cones.  The growth form of False Cypress Ivonne is particularly attractive. It growths slowly with a pronounced columnar habit. It matures to a narrow, upright, compact conifer with a dense branching habit. As it ages, it becomes slightly wider at the base. If you wish to grow Lawson’s Cypress Ivonne as a tree, do not prune it as it has a naturally conical form. Coming from the West Coast of the United States, Lawson’s Cypress Yvonne prefers full sun but it will also grow quite happily in partial shade. It will grow in any well-drained soil but it does have a preference for lightly acidic soil. While it is hardy, it is best not to plant it in a very exposed spot as it foliage won’t look at its best. Neither does it like to be waterlogged.  Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Ivonne is grown widely in the UK as an ornamental tree. Use it for adding an elegant burst of golden-yellow to the garden. It is helpful to wildlife as the dense evergreen foliage provides shelter for nesting birds in late winter /early spring. Thanks to its dense growth habit and its tolerance of pruning, Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana Ivonne can be used for topiary - for example Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana Ivonne spirals and Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Ivonne Pom Pom. The Chamaecyparis family of conifers is related to the Cypress (Cupressaceae) family. It is sometimes referred to as False Cypress, as opposed to ‘true’ Cypress which is Cupressus Leylandii. It originates from California and was first introduced to Britain in the 1850s as seeds sent to Lawson’s nursery in Edinburgh, hence the name. Today Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana, according to Kew gardens, is one of the most popular garden trees in the UK and there are many ornamental cultivars available including the blue Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Columnaris.

Acer Palmatum Red Emperor Japanese Maple Red Emperor

Acer Palmatum Red Emperor Japanese Maple Red Emperor

Acer Palmatum Red Emperor, Japanese Maple Red Emperor Acer Palmatum Red Emperor, also commonly called the Japanese Maple Red Emperor, is an upright fast-growing maple that possesses outstanding deep red foliage. Even during the heat of summer, the striking leaf colour does not fade or burn. It is an outstanding cultivar comparable with excellent leaf retention and vigorous growth rate.Many people say that the Japanese Maple Red Emperor is comparable or even outshines the very popular Acer Palmatum Bloodgood. In most circumstances, the Red Emperor boasts a faster growth rate and longer colour retention than Bloodgood. It also comes into leaf two weeks later than other Acer’s which gives it the advantage of not suffering from an early spring frost. In the spring, the foliage of Acer Palmatum Red Emperor first emerges a deep, dark purple hue. As the leaves unfurl and develop they take on a dark red shading. When autumn arrives, its leaves continue to dazzle as they turn an even brighter red and even feature some shades of orange, yellow and bronze as they fall from the tree to litter the ground to create an eye-catching colour palette. The Japanese Maple Red Emperor is also known as Acer Palmatum Emperor 1, this acer is from the Amoenum group of acers – a subspecies that tend to have larger leaves with seven or nine lobes and are very hardy as they come from higher altitudes throughout Japan and South Korea. Dick Wolff of the United States first introduced the tree as Emperor 1 in 1976. As it gained popularity, it was later patented by a gentleman from Oregon. Locate a planting site that offers full sun or partial shade. Ideally, plant the Japanese Maple Red Emperor in a location where it receives dappled shade from the glare of the afternoon sun. Sunlight helps to bring out the tree’s autumn colors. The planting site should have well-draining soil that is high in humus. During the tree’s first few years of life, keep the soil moist but not overly saturated. Once firmly established, the Red maple can tolerate periods of brief drought, but to truly flourish it requires frequent watering. Applying a three-inch layer of mulch across the soil’s surface beneath the tree will help keep the tree’s roots moist and retard unwanted weed growth. Try to plant the tree away from areas that suffer from high winds because frequent windstorms tend to dry out the tree’s fragile foliageIn the late summer and early fall, many people cut the irrigation back to the tree to produce a more dazzling fall display. Don’t let the tree completely dry out, but reduce the frequency of watering so the tree ceases growing new leaves and starts the transition into autumn and winter dormancy. Acer Palmatum Red Emperor does not require pruning, but it can be shaped in the late summer or early fall.  Acer Red Emperor is a showstopper in any garden. Plant it as a focal point or in a mixed border to draw the eye. When fully grown, the tree usually stands around 7 ½ meters with a graceful, rounded canopy.
