Product description
Choisya Greenfingers is an evergreen shrub with flowers that, initially, will bloom and show off a gorgeous, candy pink shade, before a white colouring is formed as time goes on. The flowers also provide a lovely fragrance to the garden, making it both elegant and classy in all aspects. Lastly, the evergreen foliage of the plant is filled with a strong, dark green shade to ensure the plant has a presence in the garden, as well as an attractiveness at all times. Moist, well-drained soil and full sun is recommended, along with regular watering whilst the plant establishes itself. Once that period has passed, watering it once a week will suffice. Pruning should also be carried out to ensure the best possible display in the following year.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.
