Here's a great way to bring vibrant colour to your garden right at the start of the growing season. In early spring, Symphoricarpos x chenaultii 'Brain de Soleil' sends out dozens of bright orange shoots. Otherwise known as the Snowberry, this golden leaved, deciduous shrub is adorned in late summer with creamy-green blooms. Although it prefers sun and moisture, you can grow the versatile Snowberry in normally inhospitable dry, shady areas. Height: 120cm (47). Spread: 150cm (59).
