A classic evergreen standard that earns its place in any garden with those vivid scarlet new shoots emerging against a backdrop of deep, glossy green foliage. Trained onto a clear stem and allowed to form a rounded lollipop head, it brings year-round structure and seasonal drama in equal measure. Perfect for flanking a doorway or anchoring a formal border, it's the kind of plant that draws admiring comments from first flush of growth right through to winter.
Care
Thrives in full sun to partial shade in a sheltered spot. Water regularly when newly planted, then moderately once established. Prune the head lightly after each flush of new growth to maintain shape and encourage further flushes of the signature red foliage. Avoid waterlogged soil. Feed with a balanced slow-release fertiliser in spring.
Hardiness: H5
