Nursery contributed plant descriptions

?One of the finest species in cultivation? (Hillier), this shrub (to 10') has handsome, large very glossy leaves, which color richly in fall, fine flowers of rosy-pink and large clusters of bright-red fruits early in the season. S/M
We tucked this in the garden a few years ago and more or less forgot about it, this year it screamed for attention with clusters of large bright red fruits. The plant is upright and neat and has a fantastic fruit display. We highly recommend it.
