Description

This unusual shrub delivers interesting flowers in a rare colour, beautiful foliage and intriguing, bladder-like seedpods. Colutea media ‘Copper Beauty’ is a vigorous, bushy shrub with blue-green ladder-like leaves composed of 5 or 6 leaflets. In June and July, it is covered in racemes of 3 to 8 pea-like flowers in a lovely bronze-orange spotted with yellow markings. The flowers are followed by striking, red-tinged, bladder-like seed pods about 8cm long. The pods inflate as the seeds ripen and pop loudly when squeezed making them irresistible to curious children! Colutea media ‘Copper Beauty’ is easy to grow in a hot, sunny border with freely draining soil. Resistant to pollution it suits urban gardens and grows well in coastal locations and on dry banks. Its size can easily be restricted by pruning after flowering. Height and spread: 3m (10ft).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Thompson & Morgan strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3
