Planting & Care

A unique deciduous hedge with distinctive five-lobed leaves.
Enjoy a beautiful seasonal display as foliage transitions from red-tinged green in spring to a glorious golden yellow in autumn.
In spring, small greenish-yellow flowers provide a feast for bees, followed by classic winged 'helicopter' seeds in autumn.
Create a thriving wildlife-friendly hedge, perfect planted on its own or as part of a mixed native boundary.
A robust and fast-growing shrub, it can reach 8m but is easily maintained as a hedge between 1-5m.
Awarded the RHS 'Plants for Pollinators' mark, recognising its value to bees and butterflies.
Holds the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit for its reliability and performance.

Growth Rate: Fast growing, between 30-60cm per year
