Dense clusters of heavily scented, bright pink flowers on bare stems from November to March and toothed, dark green leaves. This upright, deciduous shrub is perfect for a sunny mixed or shrub border. To reduce the risk of frost-damage to the flowers choose a sheltered site close to an entrance or path. - Garden care: After flowering prune established specimens, removing up to one in five of the oldest and weakest branches to the base.
