Escallonia Compacta Coccinea

Escallonia 'Compacta Coccinea' is a dense, compact evergreen shrub that delivers stunning colour and neat structure to any garden. From early to late summer, it produces clusters of deep crimson-red, tubular flowers that attract bees and pollinators. The glossy, dark green foliage provides year-round interest, and its naturally tidy, bushy form makes it perfect for low hedging, borders, or container planting.

This hardy and drought-tolerant shrub thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, though it will tolerate light shade. It’s ideal for coastal gardens, thanks to its salt tolerance. Minimal maintenance is needed – just trim lightly after flowering to keep its shape. Pair with Lavender, Hebe, or dwarf grasses for a vibrant, low-maintenance planting scheme.

Supplied in approx 2 litre containers.
