Escallonia Pink Elle grows well in pots and containers and is perfect for brightening up patios, driveways and terraces, as well as flanking entrances.

Escallonia is often grown as a garden shrub. However, trained into a patio tree shape, it makes an excellent addition to any garden. Patio trees provide height and structure to an outdoor space, enhancing garden design and decorating areas of paving or decking.

This cultivar boasts glossy green, ovate leaves that remain in place throughout the year, providing winter colour and interest. Large clusters of small, five-petalled, mid-pink flowers adorn the foliage through summer and autumn.

This patio tree is hardy in milder parts of the UK, tolerating temperatures as low as -5 °C. Additional insulation is needed during the winter months to protect the roots against frost damage. Excallonia Pink Elle thrives in moist, well-draining soil and is happy in most soil types. Like all plants, pot-grown specimens do need to be watered more frequently. This potted tree tolerates partial shade but flourishes best placed in full sun.
