Description

A cracking new selection of the ever-reliable and easy to grow Escallonia, this lovely compact shrub combines glossy evergreen foliage with 4 months of summer and autumn colour from its notably larger blooms than most other Escallonia!

Producing clusters of candy pink flowers in early summer, often reblooming well in autumn, ‘Pink Elle’ is ideal for forming a decorative low hedge or filling in gaps and in beds and borders with its barrage of flowers contrasting against year-round evergreen foliage.

It will remain compact, growing to around 1.2m tall and wide, producing a nice even bush, perfect for larger pots that can be placed around the patio. A brilliant flowering shrub and a recommended RHS 'Plant for Pollinators', its flowers are very attractive to pollinators which will not only bring your garden to life with the buzz of bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects but will help with the performance of other plants in the garden.

Easy to care for, tough and very rewarding, ‘Pink Elle’ is a great new introduction to the Escallonia family!

Top Tips
Deadhead regularly to prolong flowering
Care Information
  • In mid or late spring lightly cut back any shoots that spoil the shape of the plant.
  • After pruning apply a generous 5-7cm mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant.
  • Hardy in conditions down to -5C, so some winter protection should be offered if conditions are forecast to dip below this.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
