Product Information
Hypericum 'Magical Beauty' is a highly desirable new variety of Hypericum (St John's Wort), admired by gardeners for its abundant, bright yellow flowers with their amazing crown-like sprays of anthers and also for its glossy pink fruits.
'Magical Beauty' bursts into life in early spring with a flourish of dark-green leaves that provide the perfect foil for its cheery blooms and later berries which appear pale yellow in autumn before turning pink, then red and finally black. A flower arranger's dream (and a gardener's for that matter), this hypericum is ideal for a sunny or part-shaded position, and because of its compact nature, makes the perfect specimen for a pot, so you don't even need a garden to grow it.
Bees and many other beneficial pollinating insects find the sunny flowers of Hypericum irresistible and you're guaranteed months of colour as it starts blooming in June and continues right through to September, with its berries appearing from August.
Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready to be planted out. Reaching an ultimate height and spread of 80cm (2½).

Planting Advice for Hypericum
- Water your potted shrub well.
- Dig a hole a little deeper and 3 x wider than the nursery pot.
- Add a conditioner such as well rotted manure to the earth removed from the hole if necessary.
- Remove the plant from its pot and tease out a few of the roots.
- Place your shrub in the hole at the same level at the pot then refill the hole with the earth removed (backfilling).
- Firm in the soil with your heel, avoiding the root ball and water well.
- Mulch around the base of the plant with a collar, compost, gravel, bark etc.
Pruning Advice
- Once established, Hypericum is low maintenance and needs little or no regular pruning. Flowers are produced at the ends of new growth, so prune back plants in early spring.
