Escallonia Iveyi


Escallonia   Iveyi

A group of five, planted four years ago, now 6ft. tall. I reduce it by taking out some of the terminal growth, 2 to 3 ft. long.

Hmmm, I'll remember that then DoctorB - I would imagine from the look of your location that it won't like the ground to be too wet.

Are the flowers completely white ?

Dawn, very sandy soil made up round the house, if you go back to the Hardy Fuschia you will see the bleeding hose (not swearing) which I often put on to create humidity. This area is in full sun, the only shade it gets in mid afternoon is from the silver birch.
Yes TT, the flowers are all white, but suffered with scorch in the very hot sun we had recently. Sorry if not very clear, despite my all singing, all dancing new digital camera I am still not David Bailey. Lol.
