In late spring (between April and May) numerous small, simple white flowers appear, creating a delicate and decorative effect.

Hybrid shrub with a compact, spreading habit; requires full sun and well-drained soils, preferably siliceous, but adapts to poor and stony soils. Tolerant of cold, summer drought, and salt spray; excellent for stabilizing embankments. Light pruning after flowering maintains its compact shape.

FLAT POT SIZE Ø 50 CM

Instant effect: a finished garden from day one

Flatpots are well-established plants, grown in our nursery in a shallow, wide pot measuring Ø 50 cm. They arrive with a full crown and a wide root ball, with roots that spread outwards instead of circling.

The result is an instant impact: as soon as they are planted, hedges, borders and flowerbeds already have the appearance of a mature garden. You don't have to wait years for the plants to grow and, thanks to the wide and shallow root ball, they establish quickly: they are also ideal for green roofs and shallow soils.

They are the right choice for designers, landscapers and companies that need to deliver a finished project, and for anyone who wants to transform their garden in a single season.
