Rhaphiolepis Indica Springtime (Indian Hawthorn)<\/strong><\/a>
\nOur gorgeous Rhaphiolepis<\/a> are half standard and shaped as lollipops. Now flowering with blooms in a soft shade of pink, this is a very attractive evergreen shrub and can be relied upon to produce a generous crop of flowers.<\/p>\n

And last but certainly not least, Azalea Mollis Whitethroat<\/strong>,<\/a> a deciduous azalea that flowers later than other azalea varieties. Around May time, it will produce masses of pure white funnel-shaped flowers with a sweet fragrance.<\/p>\n
