Anyone have a suggestion for a fast growing decorative shrub-bush-or tree
that would grow well in the most northern town in England. I only need one
for a part of the front garden that needs a radical change. Many thanks to
those who answer.


Philadelphus (Mock Orange ) is the fastest tallest growing flowering shrub
that tolerates everything even being burnt or the worst of pruning

weigela is another thats pretty robust
