Escallonia laevis 'Pink Elle'

A cracking new selection of the ever-reliable and easy to grow Escallonia, this lovely compact shrub combines glossy evergreen foliage with 4 months of summer and autumn colour from its notably larger blooms than most other Escallonia!

Producing clusters of candy pink flowers in early summer, often reblooming well in autumn, ‘Pink Elle’ is ideal for forming a decorative low hedge or filling in gaps and in beds and borders with its barrage of flowers contrasting against year-round evergreen foliage.

It will remain compact, growing to around 1.2m tall and wide, producing a nice even bush, perfect for larger pots that can be placed around the patio. A brilliant flowering shrub, its flowers are very attractive to pollinators which will not only bring your garden to life with the buzz of bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects but will help with the performance of other plants in the garden.

Easy to care for, tough and very rewarding, ‘Pink Elle’ is an RHS 'Perfect for Pollinators' plants and a great new introduction to the Escallonia family!
