Visit to Pershore horticultural college in the sunshine.

The sun came out today and hubby took me to pershore and treated me to four little gems for my Birthday. We got back at around 4.30pm and I couldn`t wait to share them with you all. These will be going in my new garden arrangement as soon as I`ve moved my fruit trees.

Sarcococca confusa Evergreen shrub. Fragrant flowers in winter followed by shiny black fruits. sun or partial shade grows to about 1mtr.£4.99.


Buddlea davidii `White profusion`£3.99.


Escallonia `Apple Blossom¬ Evergreen shrub. Early to mid summer apple blossom pink flowers amid glossy dark green leaves. grows to about 2.5mtrs.
£3.99.

Osmanthus delavayi. Evergreen bushy shrub with glossy dark green leaves and very fragrant white flowers from mid to late spring. grows to about 2.6m.£3.99.

As you can see from the prices I think these were a real bargain.
