This is an original Rothschild hybrid (cinnabarinum Roylei Group x ambiguum) that, due to the ambiguum in its parentage, is considered one of the hardiest of the cinnabarinum hybrids. A beautiful plant bearing clusters of large, hanging and waxy, vermilion bells in late spring. Very free-flowering and easily grown in light shade. Relatively resistant to powdery mildew.
A classic Lord Aberconway hybrid, one of many in the “Lady Chamberlain Group”. This selection was made from the cross cinnabarinum (yellow form) x ‘Royal Flush Group” (orange form) which actually makes it three-quarters cinnabarinum. Lovely butter yellow flowers with a reddish flush at the base of the tube. Now rarely seen in gardens. Winner of a First Class Certificate in 1944.

A great old hybrid (calophytum x fortunei) with large and rounded trusses of fragrant white flowers bearing a reddish throat. A strong grower and best in the woodland garden to shelter the foliage and to provide the space it will eventually need. A real beauty in the mid-spring garden.
A really fantastic foliage plant - this is a cross between degronianum ssp. yakushimanum ‘Koichiro Wada’ and bureavii and features outstandingly beautiful foliage as you would imagine from the parentage. The leaves emerge whitish and have a dense cinnamon-brown indumentum on a rounded and mounding shrub. The white flowers have heavy reddish spotting. Easily grown in light shade or morning sun.
