Skimmia 'Rubella'
(Skimmia japonica 'Rubella)

Skimmia 'Rubella'̴Ì?is an evergreen hedge generally used for ornamental purposes, that̴Ì?adds a burst of warm, winter colour,̴Ì?before̴Ì?then blooming in Spring.

The Skimmia Shrub‰ۡó»s rich, dark-green leaves attractively contrast against the clusters of tiny, red buds throughout Winter. In Springtime, these buds then nicely bloom into tonnes of delicate, ivory flowers that have vivid pink-red stems. It is the ideal hedging choice when it comes to wanting low, formal hedging, or informal garden borders.

Ensure you plant your well when it is first planted, as well as during the first year of growth- after this, it will only need watering during long periods of dry weather. Your Skimmia Shrub would also love a mulch and feed during Spring, as to maintain a healthy condition.

The Skimmia japonica ‰ۡÌÝÌáRubella‰ۡó» is amazingly low maintenance, and thrives best in moist, but well-drained, soil and when placed in partial shade- though it can also grow well in full shade, too. It is a little sensitive to light, however, so ensure you keep it out of full sun where possible (as it can cause the leaves to turn a yellowy colour).

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.
