(1) Corylopsis spicata – winter hazel
(1) Hamamelis x intermedia "Diane" -witch hazel, red blooms.
(5) Phyllostachys aureosulcata "Spectabilis‟ - running yellow groove bamboo. Not a slow grower. Will, at some point, require arduous root pruning. Hard to recommend for containers unless that is ALL you are putting in there. We are sinking ours in thick plastic pots within in the main planters. It's an experiment.
(3) Fargesia rufa – clumping bamboo. Much better behaved.

Thankyou,Marie. Even though almost all are beyond me, I have, at various times, grown most of these.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing your camellia is C. sasanqua?
And good luck with the rudely rambunctious bamboo!
