The Cotoneaster 'Hybridus Pendulus' is a lovely arching plant that can be used to create an attractive dome in any garden with its drooping, weeping branches. It offers small green leaves that make a perfect canvas for the masses of white flowers that laden the branches in June and July. In autumn, the tree bursts with clusters of bright red berries. The berries remain on the plant for an extended time, creating a long lasting and eye-catching display.

This is a semi-evergreen tree, leaves will fall only in the harshest of winters, so you can expect the tree to retain most of its green leaves throughout the year. Both the flowers and the fruits are extremely attractive to wildlife, bringing birds, bees and butterflies into your garden. The seeds of the fruit are not recommended for human consumption and can cause mild stomach upsets if ingested.

This small ornamental tree is fully hardy and will thrive in full sun or partial shade. It prefers well drained, moderately fertile soil. The tree does not require heavy or regular pruning but can be pruned to remove wayward, crossed or damaged branches or to reduce the size of the plant if needed.

This lovely, arching Cotoneaster tree offers all year round interest. It looks fabulous arching over a path, creating a canopy where one can walk underneath it. It is also perfect to arch over a patio, a courtyard or a gazebo to provide summer shade. The Cotoneaster can be used very effectively in small gardens for screening purposes. This lovely tree holds an RHS Award of Garden Merit.
