people's favourites and why!

I am a fan of Hollies in all their many shapes sizes and colours, with or
without prickles!
Euonymous can also be lovely in their variegated leaf forms

How about Garrya the silk tassel bush, they are spectacular when they are
big, then there is the Leycesteria Pheasant Berry, that is a very pretty
shrub that can be left to grow big or cut back , mine don't seem to mind
what I do with them.
Then there is the Photonia Red Robin beautiful and the Mahonia another
goodie not forgetting the Conifer Goldcrest, cheap and it glows on a dull
day :-) so many to choose from
