During early summer, Cotoneaster x watereri produces beautiful, white/pale pink flowers that bees and other pollinators adore. Then, come autumn time, this tree really springs into life. The flowers give way to the rich, bright red berries that stay on the branches all the way into winter.
The berries are a valuable food source for birds during the colder months. Plus, the arching branches glistening with red berries in autumn is quite beautiful.
Cotoneaster x watereri has a bushy, upright habit, making it a perfect addition to a wildlife friendly garden. Watch as your garden becomes a busy, buzzing haven for all kinds of nature.
