Pot Grown Pieris 'Forest Flame'
(Pieris floribunda 'Forest Flame')

Pieris ‰ۡÌÝÌáForest Flame‰ۡó» is quite a big shrub, known for its evergreen foliage that starts in shades of red, slowly turning cream and pink, then eventually green.

We've dedicated time and care into growing your pot grown plant, so it arrives looking stunningly new and healthy.

Stunning, colour-changing foliage is a gorgeous feature found in Pieris ‰ۡÌÝÌáForest Flame,‰ۡó» as it covers reds, creams, pinks, and greens, during its growth. By late spring, the bush is also sprinkled with lovely, delicate, creamy-white coloured flowers, that nod like bells. With all the beautiful vivid colours and pretty flowers, the Pieris ‰ۡÌÝÌáForest Flame‰ۡó» is sure to spice up your garden.

It will reach an ultimate height and spread of 4m x 2m.

Please note, the Pieris ‰ۡÌÝÌáForest Flame‰ۡó» is toxic if ingested- you will need to wear gloves when handling the plant.

Pieris ‰ۡÌÝÌáForest Flame‰ۡó» should be planted in full sun or partial shade, and in loam, or sand-based soils, that is moist and well-draining. We also recommend having this shrub South, West, or East facing.

  • Growth rate: Slow
  • Ideal height: 4m Tall
  • Soil type: Loam, sand
  • Aspect: Full sun, semi-shade
  • Evergreen foliage? Yes

As it is pot grown, you can easily leave the plant in its pot for a few days/weeks before planting it. Just ensure you keep the plant well-watered, and it gets enough sun. Don't leave it for too long, however, as you don't want the roots becoming root bound.

Prune any dead, diseased, or damaged shoots, then thin out the crowed shoots, as well as any that are badly positioned. Aim to remove about one-third of the old wood in total, when doing this. After pruning, we do recommend adding a bit of mulch and feed, to boost growth and protect the plant‰ۡó»s roots.

  1. Prepare the soil by mixing in some compost. Dig the hole- this will have to be about twice the width of the root system, but the same depth.
  2. Remove the plant from its pot by placing one hand on the base of the plant, and the other at the bottom of the pot. Wriggle the pot away gently.
  3. Untangle the roots a little as they may be clumped together.
  4. Place the plant into the hole, ensuring the base of the stem is level with the surface of the soil. Follow this with backfilling the hole with your soil mix, and patting down to lightly secure.
  5. When you're done, thoroughly water the plant. Ensure you regularly water throughout its first year, as the plant needs plenty to be able to settle down, recover, and establish.

Root Types Summary

  • Bare Root
    Bare Root

    Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.

  • Pot Grown
    Pot Grown

    Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.

  • Root Ball
    Root Ball

    Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.

  • Instant Hedging
    Instant Hedging

    Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
