Plant of the Month
November
Sorbus commixta 'Embley'
I find Sorbus commixta ‘Embley’ an invaluable small tree for bringing elegance and seasonal variety to a garden. In spring it offers pretty clusters of white blossom. These are followed by vibrant orange-red berries that glow against finely divided foliage turning rich shades of red and orange in autumn. I often use it to introduce lightness and height to planting schemes, where its graceful form and vivid colour provide a striking focal point throughout the changing seasons.
