I have compiled a list of shrubs you may find useful under the following headings:

- Top shrubs for sun
- Shrubs for interest in all seasons

Here goes:-

Top shrubs for shade


* Prunus "Otto Luyken"
* Lonicera pileata
* Euonymus "Emerald & Gold"
* Hydrangea macrophylia
* Vinca major "Variegata"
* Mahonia aquifolium
* Kerria japonica
* Viburnum davidii



Top shrubs for sun


* Lavatera "Rosea"
* Fuchsia "Mrs. Popple"
* Potentilla "Abbotswood"
* Spirea japonica "Anthony Waterer"
* Buddleia davidii
* Cistus
* Ribes sanguineum
* Pittosporum "Tom Thumb"



Shrubs for interest in all seasons


* Forsythia "Lynwood"
* Berberis darwinii
* Escallonia "Apple Blossom"
* Fuchsia "Genii"
* Perovskia "Blue Spire"
* Berberis thunbergii
* Viburnum x bodnantense "Dawn"
* Erica "Myreton Ruby"

Does anybody have any lists they would like to contribute? :)
