Thompson & Morgan Mahonia aquifolium 9cm Potted Plant x 1

Let this low-maintenance Mahonia aquifolium loose in a shaded border and it will treat you to a dazzling display of vibrant yellow flowers in spring. Perfect for a tricky spot or woodland gardens, this resilient and unfussy ground cover shrub shoots out multiple stems and will tolerate most conditions, including poor, dry soils often found under trees or within a dense shrubbery. Throughout the year the tough, weatherproof foliage provides a good ground cover, colouring up well through the winter months with blotches of red, orange and mauve. Mahonia plants are prickly evergreens, so are ideal for security planting and deterring burglars and cats from your garden. Grow Mahonia plants in borders or containers in any rich fertile, well drained soil in full sun or semi shade. Although Mahonia plants are hardy they will appreciate a sheltered position away from cold, drying winds. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil. Feed and water regularly throughout the growing season until young plants become established. Mahonia plants require little pruning but may benefit from a trim in spring, once the winter berries have fallen, to remove any damaged or diseased stems and lightly shape the plant.
