Cotoneaster Horizontalis - 48 Plant Bulk Pack
This 48-pack of Cotoneaster horizontalis provides excellent value for creating ground cover, borders, or embankment plantings. Each plant measures 10-25cm in height and arrives in a recyclable 9cm growing pot, ready for immediate planting or potting on.
Plant Characteristics
Cotoneaster horizontalis features distinctive horizontal branching that creates a striking herringbone pattern. The glossy, dark green leaves provide year-round structure, while the deciduous nature reveals attractive branch architecture in winter. This hardy shrub adapts to most soil types and positions, making it suitable for various garden situations.
Seasonal Interest
In autumn, the foliage transforms into vibrant shades of red and orange before the leaves drop. Beautiful red berries appear in fall and persist through winter, providing food for birds and adding visual interest when many other plants have finished their display. Small pink-tinged white flowers emerge in spring, attracting bees and beneficial pollinators.
Uses and Applications
This spreading shrub works well as ground cover, particularly on slopes and embankments where it helps control erosion. The horizontal growth habit makes it suitable for borders, rock gardens, or trailing over walls and stonework. Mature plants typically reach 50-100cm in height with a spread of 150-200cm, creating dense coverage once established.
Growing Conditions
Cotoneaster horizontalis thrives in full sun to partial shade and tolerates most well-drained soils, including alkaline conditions. This low-maintenance shrub requires minimal pruning and is both deer-resistant and hardy to USDA zones 4-7. Once established, it demonstrates good drought tolerance and adapts well to urban and suburban environments.
