malcolminthemiddle Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Can any one recommend a flowering bush/shrub suitable as a centre piece to a lawn with full day sun. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 We had a 3 colour bougainvillia for many years, it's three different coloured plants grafted onto one root stock. Positives Indestructible Lots of flowers Negatives Thorns (thornless varieties are available) Very fast growing, needs regular clipping or it will get out of hand 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWRC Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Hibiscus are a nice leafy shrub with lovely vibrant flowers, you can give these a clip a couple of times a year if you want to keep it to a compact shape and check growth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyS1951 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 If you give a bit of a frames support Allamanda could be the answer. Big yellow trumpet like flowers year round and it likes full sun. It can be untidy hence the frame support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trucking Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Cannabis ? Loves the sun . Prune it at 2 feet and it will bush out nicely. Flowers are very pleasant, especially when dried. Caveat. You need high walls around your property to discourage unwanted attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
