Winter Berries
Perhaps the most attractive of the berrying subjects are those with red berries, red being a warm colour, and this may., account for their winter appeal. The Cotoneasters provide a big selection to choose from, an they vary greatly in habit. Several may be trained to form small trees, most make attractive upright bushes, and some are prostrate and creeping, and ideal fcr the rockeries and dry banks. To mention just a few of those which provide a real mass of berries, the first is Cotoneaster rotundifolia, semievergreen, spreading growth, up to five or six feet high. Its large scar-let-red berries are held over a long period.
