ELDER FLOWER POWER! Sambucus nigra 'Black Lace' (PBR) is a gorgeous 3 x 3m shrub with black/purple foliage with a lace-like appearance. Umbels of tiny, sweet-smelling pink elder-flowers amass in summer. We love this shrub for its drama and seasonal interest. Mix into a full garden bed or plant in a row for an low, informal hedge.

Persian princess! Want something NEW for autumn? Consider Parrotia persica ‘JLColumnar’ Persian Spire. A dense tree with an irregular leaf & upright form, this princess is stunning! At just 8m - it won't be huge, and makes a great hedge in autumn with long lasting shades of reds, oranges and purple tones.
