An old favourite of graceful growth. Beautiful deep rosy wine flowers set against the purple of the new growths, later the foliage matures to glossy maroon-red. Small scarlet crabs in the Autumn. This variety was introduced from Holland over 30 years ago and is still well worth growing, a trouble free grower with plenty of colour.

We have in place very rigorous standards for the health,
providence and uniformity of all our fruiting plants & trees. Our Nursery and the stock we grow is
inspected and passported for health regularly by DEFRA experts [formerly the Ministry of Agriculture]
and we have in place our own stringent controls and inspection programmes to ensure our fruiting
bushes and trees are the best, most disease free stocks available and truly beyond compare.
We always propagate from certified stock where this exists and have the highest standards regarding providence
and grading. If only the very best will do – as it should – then you can rely on a Chris Bowers fruiting
plant to give the most exemplary results available. We firmly believe that only the very healthiest
stock can and does produce vastly superior results – and it shows.
