Flowering Shrub Collection

Description

Flowering shrubs are the backbone of any garden, giving colour, form, winter interest and privacy throughout the year, for many years, as well as attracting a host of wildlife.
A lovely collection of gorgeous summer and early autumn-flowering shrubs for years of colour & fragrance, featuring a mix of flower colours, giving interest from May through to September, this collection includes customer favourites which are particularly adored for their scent and colour.
With so many different types available, there's always something that will appeal to every gardener, whatever their level of experience or preference.
