Pot Size: 7.5 litre Price: £50.00 Description: Our first collection of this magnificent woodland species which we gathered seed of from Taipingshan in the north of Taiwan in 1993 at 2,000m. Growing in contrastingly different conditions to F. japonica in the wild, availing it more hardiness. The resulting seedlings were subsequently planted out in our walled garden, where they have formed large shrubs over 3m tall by 3m wide bearing deeply (to half their length) mostly 5-9 narrowly lobed dark matt-green palmate leaves. Bearing terminal inflorescences in the winter consisting of long spikes of rounded clusters of white flowers, held on heavily brown tomentum covered stems. Easily grown in sun to shade in any good fertile drained soil, best out of freezing winds, although this can be withstood.
