Schisandra grandiflora - WJC13816

Pot Size: 2 litre (deep)
Price: £25.00
Description:
We found this collection on the last leg of our 2013 expedition to the eastern Himalayas, at just below 3,000m, growing up tall bamboo. Forming twining deciduous woody climbers to 6m tall/long, with elliptic pale green soft textured foliage to 15cm long. Bearing strongly scented white to palest pink flowers sometimes red rimmed, from the leaf axils April-June. Succeeded by (edible) ceiling-wax-red in this species, 7mm wide berries in long densely packed pendant strings. Male and female flowers are normally born on separate unisexual plants (dioecious) in this group of Schisandra. Easily grown in any type of fertile humus-enriched soil in part shade-full sun with the roots in shade.
